ATP Doha 250 1/8-Finals
Fucsovics – Bublik: 21.02.2024 Time TBA
H2H: 1-4
Marton Fucsovics has finally started playing well again! He played perfectly in the first round, where he only lost 4 games against Bautista Agut. His ground strokes were really solid, and he managed to play aggressively without having many unforced errors. 22 winners with 4 unforced errors are almost perfect stats for a player. If he can keep up this level, he might be a dark horse this week. His opponent, Alexander Bublik, after winning Montpellier, had dropped his form. It looks yet again that he lacks motivation, which has often been the case with him already throughout his career. With Fucsovics playing this well, it is hard to expect him to have a big chance tomorrow. With all being said, if Bublik does not show his A game tomorrow, we strongly believe that Fucsovics will win this one!
Value bet/ the best odds: Fucsovics to win @1.80 @bet365
Humbert – Kotov: 21:02.2024 Time TBA
H2H: 1-0
After winning Marseille, Humbert lost his only match that he played in three tough sets. It looked like he was exhausted, which is often the case after players win a big title! However, he had one week when he probably rested well, and we believe that he will step up his game again! His big serves are definitely going to be a problem for Kotov, and we might expect a tough match here without many breaks. His opponent, Kotov, has played brilliantly in the first round, where he won against Sonego in straight sets! His serve was brilliant, and he looked really solid out there. This matchup is hard to predict as both players have big serves and both of them are in form. That being said, we believe that this match will be a long one with a lot of games played. It might even go to three sets. Other games in this match is a value bet, and you should definitely go for it!
Value bet/ the best odds: over 22.5 games @1.83 @bet365
Maroszan – Khacanov: 21.02.2024 Time TBA
H2H: first meeting
Maroszan is getting better every week, he is still young, and we believe that he still has not hit his ceiling yet. Here, in Doha, he won his first round in two tight sets where he stayed calm and composed. His 1st serve percentage was great and that is how he managed to win many free points. After having a solid Australian Open, the young Hungarian did not perform well, but he looked fine in the first round. His opponent, Karen Khacanov, had lots of ups and downs recently in his career. We are not sure how we will perform here since he did not play any matches in this tournament. Maroszan performed really well, and he showed that he can do a lot of, he might even win against Khachanov tomorrow, but we want to go safe and bet on him to cover the handicap games line! If you want to risk it, you could try and bet on Maroszan winning the match, but we advise you to do our value bet!
Value bet/ the best odds: Maroszan +2.5 games @2.00 @bet365
