ATP Masters 1000 Rome 1/64-Finals
Barrios Vera – Munar: 08.05.2025 14:00 CEST
H2H: 0-2
Tomas Barrios Vera has won four of his last five matches. This week in Rome, Barrios Vera qualified for the main draw tournament. In the final qualifying round, he defeated Royer in three tight sets after spending three hours on the court.
Jaume Munar has lost four of his last five matches. Last week in Aix en Provence, Munar lost in the opening round against Vacherot in straight sets. The Spaniard lost against Norrie in the second round last season in Rome. He has never made it past the second round.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Munar is the slight favourite in this matchup, and we agree. Last season in Bad Waltersdorf at the Challenger tournament, Munar defeated Barrios Vera in three sets under similar conditions. Barrios Vera spent three hours on the court yesterday and will be exhausted for the upcoming match.
That being said, Munar winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Jaume Munar winning @1.57 @bet365
Borges – Seyboth Wild: 08.05.2025 14:00 CEST
H2H: 0-2
Nuno Borges has lost three of his last five matches. Last week in Estoril, Borgest lost against Kecmanovic in the quarterfinals. He had no remarkable results on clay this season.
Thiago Seyboth Wild has won four of his last five matches. This week in Rome, the Brazilian qualified for the main draw tournament, winning both matches in straight sets. In the final qualifying round, he defeated de Jong in straight sets. He trailed 1-3 in the second set but turned it around.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Borges is the slight favourite in this matchup, but we disagree. He recently struggled with his form on clay courts. On the other hand, Seyboth Wild played his best tennis this week in Rome and leads 2-0 in head-to-head meetings against Borges. We expect Seyboth Wild to be a better player tomorrow.
That being said, Seyboth Wild winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Thiago Seyboth Wild winning @2.20 @bet365
Carballes Baena – Ofner: 08.05.2025 15:30 CEST
H2H: 1-0
Roberto Carballes Baena has won three of his last five matches. His last match was in Barcelona, where he lost against Fearnley in the opening round in straight sets. Last season in Rome, the Spaniard lost against de Minaur in the second round.
Sebastian Ofner has won three of his last five matches. This week in Rome, Ofner had a tough tournament but won both qualifying matches in straight sets. In the final qualifying round, the Austrian defeated Hanfmann in straight sets.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Ofner is the slight favourite in this matchup, and we agree. He defeated two solid clay-court players in the qualifying tournament. On the other hand, Carballes Baena won his last match over a month ago. We expect Ofner to dominate and win this match.
That being said, Ofner winning is a value bet.
