ATP Los Cabos 250 Quarter-finals
Borges – Ruud: 22.02.2024 23:00
H2H: first meeting
Nuno Borges is playing his best tennis. He reached the top 50 in the rankings, and he played exceptionally well in the first two rounds here, in Los Cabos. His tennis has improved so much since last year. The Australian Open was his breakthrough tournament, where he managed to win against players such as Davidovich Fokina and Dimitrov. It looks like he is really self-confident and his ground strokes are really heavy and consistent. If he could keep playing like this, we might see him even going further up in the rankings. His opponent, Casper Ruud, former number 2, has been playing pretty well this year. He did not have any big results, but he was consistent enough. In Los Cabos, he managed to win his second round match by only dropping one game against Giron. It looked like he was the only player on the court, and we do not see that really often from Ruud. Both guys are inform, and we expect to watch an interesting match. It is really hard to predict the outcome, but we believe that this one will be really close and tough. With all being said, over games is a value bet in this matchup, and you should go for it!
Value bet/ the best odds: over 22.5 games @1.80 @bet365
Michelsen – Thompson: 23.02.2024 00:30
H2H: 0-1
Alex Michelsen is a young American talent who is one of the biggest American hopes as far as tennis goes. His big serve and forehand are his forte. De Minaur did not have an answer for his playing style in the second round, where Michelsen dominated from the first point until the last one. His opponent, Thompson, is also picking up his form. He had easy wins in the first two rounds, here in Los Cabos. Both guys are really shining at the moment, and we will have yet another interesting match. Bookies are also not sure, so the odds are pretty even. Both players are perfect servers, and we might expect a tiebreak here or maybe even a couple of tiebreaks. With all being said, we believe that this one will also be a really tough match to predict. However, they will probably play a lot of games and probably even three sets. Over games is yet again a value bet and you should definitely go for it!

Kovacevic – Tsitsipas: 23.02.2024 02:00
H2H: first meeting
Aleksandar Kovacevic is mostly a challenger tour level player who now and then gets a wildcard or fights through qualification rounds into the ATP main draw tournament. He already has four matches behind him, here in Los Cabos. We have to admit that he had a little bit of luck with his draw as he is yet to face a top 70 player. Now, things are looking a little bit different as he will face the number 11 in the world, Stefanos Tsitsipas. Tsitsipas has only played the Davis Cup after losing in the 1/8 Finals of the Australian Open. His first match here was brilliant. He struggled a little bit in the first set, but as he stepped up his level later on, he was unplayable. With all that being said, we believe that Kovacevic is just not ready for the type of player like Tsitsipas is and that Tsitsipas will win here easily!
Value bet/ the best odds: Tsitsipas -4.5 handicap games @1.91 @bet365
