Expert Betting Tips
Carlos didn't beat Monfils quite as confidently as we thought he would, missing out on one game for the main draw. However, it's evident that he is improving with each match. Alcaraz recently faced Machac at the Davis Cup. He defeated Tomas then, so we think the Spaniard will beat him this time, as well, but more confidently. That'll bring him closer to the final of the Masters in Shanghai.
