Agut seems like a good bet. Seems solid so far. Strong serve and Fognini not a strong server

I haven't watched Agut for some time but Fognini is my favourite player after Joker, because if he is on his day and motivated, he is very much capable to beat anyone. So I will back him with 0,5units. Also if Agut is a good player as people say in this forum, over looks good as well since Fognini is not a great server but a good overall player.

Agut ML, I've been watching a trend now for a couple weeks and Aguts opening Odds have hit well over 90% of the time.

Correct me if I am wrong but isnt the price of 3 setter @2.30 or over 22.5 @1.88 looks better than Agut ML @1.70?

Does Agut serve way better than Fognini? Thats the key. I am not sure about it
but trying to look at all angles. If Agut wins today, he will be a top 40 player, his career high and he plays first time in his career against his fellow-countryman possible-idol Rafael Nadal(if Nadal does not ultra-choke).

I really, really like the over here.
I think the odds are about fair... Butt-Pirate has some sick talent.

Hardcoar, what do you think about Nadal angle above?
I think every tennis player, even more Spaniards, would like to play against Nadal. Agut has not played and you never know if you will have another chance
"Idols growing up were Juan Carlos Ferrero and David Ferrer"
Not really, considering that he and Nadal are pretty much the same age...

Nadal is 5 years younger than me and he is an idol to me

I think it will add to his motivation for sure. I don't think it will affect his performance by a substantial amount, but it's certainly not negligible either.
Expect serving to be fairly equal between the two, as well as a pretty good match, by my predictions.
I have to give current market odds (of @ 1.75) on B-A some value, but I do find the over a safer bet in this case.

He said that Ferrero and Ferrer were his idols while GROWING UP. That probably means that he was around 14-15 years at that time, while Nadal was around 16 in same period... He was not one of the best players back then. Do you get my point now?

Good point. But I wasn't being a jerk, was just laughing at myself
