Cincinnati Masters Men’s Singles QF
If there’s anything a sports betting fan loves more than winning big, it’s winning big with an underdog.
There’s something special about cheering for the little guy that makes sports exciting. The act of supporting an underdog means a lot more in punting because underdogs always have riskier betting odds. Riskier odds only mean one thing: unbelievable winnings when you make the right guess.
The Men’s Singles of the Western & Southern Open have a good number of these underdogs that pulled off impressive performances. Do betting websites look kindly on your favourite tennis star?
Dominic Thiem vs David Ferrer
Dominic Thiem may have won his 3rd Round game in straight sets, but Adrian Mannarino forced the tie-break in both sets. The Austrian failed to capitalise on his break points, but his powerful serves stopped the Frenchman from making the most of the failed break points. If you’re confident that the Austrian will win in straight sets, go for Thiem’s -1.50 Asian Handicap for 2.31.
David Ferrer, meanwhile, had to climb from the 1st Round to reach the quarter-final. He may have found his stride after beating Pablo Carreño Busta in straight sets. If you’ believe in the older Spaniard, then a bet on 2.56 Money Line is the way to go.
Jared Donaldson vs John Isner
This is an all-American match that could divide the crowd.
Jared Donaldson pulled off an impressive victory over Roberto Bautista Agut, winning in straight sets. He struggled a bit in the subsequent rounds, but his resilient play helped him to a spot in the quarter-final.
Meanwhile, John Isner had a relatively safe route to the last eight. There were instances where he was threatened, but the seeded American didn’t let the situation get out of control.
If you think the younger American can outplay the giant veteran, it’s best to put your money on his 3.38 Money Line odds. Otherwise, it’s best to go for Isner’s -1.50 Asian Handicap for 1.90.
Grigor Dimitrov vs Yuichi Sugita
Grigor Dimitrov had an interesting trip to the Cincinnati Masters quarter-final. Both Feliciano Lopez and Juan Martin Del Potro forced a full set to the Bulgarian, but Dimitrov always managed to kill the game before the situation got any worse.
Meanwhile, Yuichi Sugita went through a struggle to reach this point. He had to fend off Jack Sock, Joao Sousa and Karen Khachanov to earn the right to fight Dimitrov. Moreover, their Rogers Cup match last year proved just how strong of a hard court player Sugita is.
Dimitrov is a heavy favourite to win, so betting websites slapped a -1.50 handicap on him for 2.31. Meanwhile, thrill-seekers will be happy to know that Sugita has an amazing 3.38 Money Line odds going for him.
