ATP 250 Chengdu 1/8-Finals
Musetti – Prizmic: 20.09.2025 08:30 CEST
H2H: first meeting
Lorenzo Musetti has won four of his last five matches. The last match he played was at the US Open, where he lost to Sinner in the quarterfinals in straight sets. He took some time off to prepare for the upcoming Asian swing.
Dino Prizmic has won three of his last five matches. Last week, the Croat lost against Moutet in three sets. Croatia played on clay and lost against France. This week in Chengdu, Prizmic defeated Atmane in the opening round in straight sets. He served great, not offering any breakpoints.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Musetti is the favourite in this matchup, but we disagree. He has not played any competitive matches for the past few weeks. On the other hand, Prizmic dominated in the opening round against Atmane. We expect a tight match that could go either way.
That being said, Prizmic covering the games handicap is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Dino Prizmic +3.5 games handicap @1.73 @bet365
Griekspoor – Daniel: 20.09.2025 07:00 CEST
H2H: 2-0
Tallon Griekspoor has lost five straight matches. The Dutchman struggled with his form for the past two months. His last win was over two months ago in Bastad on clay. The last match he played was at the US Open, where he lost to Mannarino in the opening round in straight sets.
Taro Daniel has won three of his last five matches. Last week, Daniel lost against Sharipov in the opening round of the Challenger tournament in Guangzhou. This week in Chengdu, Daniel won both qualifying matches in straight sets easily. In the final qualifying round, he defeated Harris in straight sets, whilst saving all seven breakpoints. Daniel defeated Wong in the opening main draw round in straight sets.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Griekspoor is the slight favourite in this matchup, but we disagree. Daniel dominated in the opening round against Wong. On the other hand, Griekspoor struggled with his form for the past few months. We expect Daniel to be a better player tomorrow.
That being said, Daniel winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Taro Daniel winning @2.63 @bet365
McDonald – Basilashvili: 20.09.2025 07:00 CEST
H2H: 4-0
Mackenzie McDonald has won three of his last five matches. This week in Chengdu, McDonald qualified for the main draw tournament. In the opening main draw round, McDonald defeated van de Zandschulp in straight sets.
Nikoloz Basilashvili has won three of his last five matches. Last week in Guangzhou, Basilashvili lost in the opening round of the Challenger tournament against McCabe in straight sets. This week in Chengdu, Basilashvili qualified for the main draw tournament, by winning both matches in three tight sets. In the opening main draw round, Basilashvili defeated Harris in straight sets.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, McDonald is the slight favourite in this matchup and we agree. He leads 4-0 in head-to-head meetings and we expect him to prolong that winning streak.
That being said, McDonald winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Mackenzie McDonald winning @1.57 @bet365
