Re: Tennis 05.05 - 11.05.2008, WTA (Berlin), ATP (Rome)
Good luck with those Engineer, especially Robredo, as he's the one I'm on too.
Bets for today:
Lay Azarenka @ 1.58, liability 2pts - Dulko in excellent form, won Fes last week, don't think she should be this big an outsider
Lay Bartoli @ 2.46, liability 8pts - Szavay has a fantastic 28-5 record on clay for the past year. Bartoli not in the best of form and hard to see Szavay losing this one.
Szavay 2-0 @ 2.8 2pts - as above
Roddick @ 2.12 4pts - don't think Roddick should be such the outsider for this one. Clay obviously not his favourite surface, but he's got a QF and a SF to his name in this tournament in the past. Bolelli in great form, but he had a couple of gruelling matches at the end of the Munich event last week (both the SF and the final went to 3 sets, both included 2 tie-breaks), and I think that might start to catch up with him here.
Lay Stepanek @ 1.54 to win 4pts - Horna has looked in decent shape so far this week, even if Gasquet was awful in the 1st round. Stepanek beat Ferrer last round, excellent result, but Ferrer, like Nadal, was maybe another of those feeling the effects of so much tennis of late. Stepanek can be a bit hit-and-miss, and on that basis I think his price is far too short.
Gonzalez v Almagro > 22.5 games @ 1.833, 4pts - Two players in very good form, Gonzalez leads the H2H 2-0, but both were 7-6 7-5, so very closely matched players. Reckon this one will go to 3 sets, in which case the bet is virtually guaranteed to come in. Even if it's over in 2 sets, something like a 7-6 6-4 would do.
