Interesting to see that you have selected it, both players dont preform so good recently but the Frenchman has advantage on clay + the home crowd. Last year he was great on clay Turnys in France, and the crowd really pushed him to win every game,so I would not be surprised if he wins it in straight sets.

And I have Q for you,waht you think on Almagro,last year after he lost in Hou final to Isner and he came to play in **',he barly won Gofin(2:1) and lost right after that to Melzer(@5.5)2:0,so what your opinion for this one,we can trust PM to win a set?

Good luck with the pick!!

Almagro looked pretty awful in Houston against a weak field and has to be tired. You're right, Mathieu is probably worth a small play, considering the odds.

5) Mathieu ML (+254) x0.5

Both Tursunov & Berdych's serves are looking great. It's hard to imagine there not being at least one TB here.

6) LIVE (1st set, 3-2 Berdych): Over 20.5 (-111) x1

Not a Monte Carlo play, but Alexander Zverev is playing Donald Young at the Sarasota Challenger event at 11am Pacific time (45 minutes from now). Young had a decent run in Houston, but is still nothing special. Zverev, on the other hand, is the #1 ranked Juniors player at the moment, having won the Juniors title at the AO. At 17, this kid is a legit talent and while seriously lacking in experience, he's prime to put up a solid fight here against Young. Worth a small play, IMO.

Alexander Zverev ML (+438) x0.5

1-1-1 (+0.5u)

Overall: 3-1-2 (+2.5u)

Stan is going to beat Cilic tomorrow. I hesitated at -143 and it's now up to -189 and still rising...

7) Fognini -1.5 sets (+124) x1

Fognini is in good form and playing on his best surface. Too many of Bautista-Agut's wins this year have come against weakened opponents. Pospisil/Jerzy/Nieminen, and he hasn't played much clay this year. Fognini already has 16 matches on clay, going 14-2

8) Lu ML (+516) x0.5

9) Mahut ML (+604) x0.5

10) Federer / Stepanek Under 20 games (-111) x1

11) Wawrinka -2 (-125) x1

12) Monfils -1.5 sets (-140) x1
13) Dolgopolov -1.5 sets (-123) x1

Stan & Roger looked amazing today. Monfils & Dolgo looked horrible. Now watch them both come back to win in 3 sets, rubbing in the losses further.
