Expert Betting Tips

The bookmakers are right to make De Minaur the favorite for the upcoming match. The Australian is in great form, as we have seen in Alex's last matches. Ruud is not bad either, and he beat Rune, a top-ten player in the ATP rankings. However, we would like to point out that De Minaur has the experience of beating Casper on hard courts, while Ruud has only beaten Alex on clay. We are on the side of the favorites, but we doubt the upcoming meeting will be brief.
