Expert Betting Tips

A top player is a bit overrated. We should remember that Jannick played some tough matches last week and won the tournament in Beijing. The Italian has two wins in Shanghai, but he had to play three sets against Baez, and the Argentine is not the strongest hardcourt player in the world. Ben has improved a lot lately. We are on the side of the underdog.
