ATP Eckental Challenger
Round 1

MATCH STARTS IN 30 MINUTES
(Sorry for the late pick, I've been tossing this up for a while and finally decided to run with it)

Ernests Gulbis 2-0 sets @ -166 (Sportingbet) - 2 Units v. Alexey Vatutin



Quick analysis - Gulbis is one of the most talented young tennis players going around. Un-fortunately he has a playboy attitude and hates to train. His opponent is a nobody ranked around 500 with 3 recorded matches to his pro career. Ernest's has shown some interest in this tournament by dispatching his first round opponent in easy straight sets. A fully motivated and fired up Gulbis wins this something like 6-2 6-1 (and that's being generous to his opponent)

Nice call on fading Hantuchova, hopefully the second set goes as smoothly as the first. Hantuchova has steadily declined the past couple of years, and seems to be sinking to a new low with each passing month.

Vinci is playing the best tennis of her life, going in the exact opposite direction this year. Huge mismatch based on current and recent form. The odds were tighter than they should have been perhaps because of the 2-2 h2h record and Hantuchova's past ranking/reputation.

Thanks mate, superb analysis of the current situation, I couldn't believe the odds they were offering on Vinci to be honest.
