Tennis predictions & best bets

A pick for every ATP and Challenger match: the numbers that matter, a short written take, and the minimum price worth taking. Our number starts from the market and moves only as far as form, surface record, workload and fitness justify - so when the price is already right, we say so. Opinions, not guarantees. 19+, bet responsibly.

Best bets - where our number beats the price most

How to read a pick

Strong - our number is well clear of the market and the data is solid. Solid - a clear but smaller gap. Lean - the price is about right; this is who we would side with, not a bet we would chase. Min is the price at which the bet stops being worth it: below it, leave it or wait for a better number in-play. To win a set is the set handicap +1.5 market; 2-0 is straight sets from set betting.
