Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 40 – 1.74.
As good as Draper looks, he doesn’t stand much of a chance against De Minaur. Alex has more experience. Jack is unlikely to last long. Even the support from the stands won’t do him much good.
I don’t believe there will be much resistance from Draper. After all, Jack is significantly inferior in class to Alex.
De Minaur faced Hugo Dellien in the first round (6-1, 6-3, 7-5). Not the most difficult opponent and Alex made the most of it.
Three sets were enough for Hugo, who had only one victory in his career on grass tennis, as expected.
De Minaur came good in Eastbourne the week before Wimbledon, reaching the semi-finals. However, it still wasn’t what he had hoped for. Last year, he took the title at this tournament.
De Minaur’s best result at Wimbledon so far has been reaching the third round in 2018.
Draper started off with a win over Zizou Bergs (6-4, 6-4, 7-6). Although he also managed to win in three sets, the match was not an easy one.
All the sets were as tense as possible and in the third set, everything was decided only on the tie-break.
In fact, Draper was playing against a fairly tough opponent. The 146th-ranked Bergs won the Challenger in Ilkley in June and defeated Casper Ruud at an exhibition tournament in Hurlingham.
So, Draper did an excellent job, while at the same time confirming that his recent successes have been entirely legitimate. Jack beat Taylor Fritz in London and reached the semi-finals in Eastbourne.
In 3 of Draper’s last 5 matches, more than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Over 9.5” with the odds of 1.57.
