ATP 250 Marseille 1\/8-Finals<\/h2>\n

Altmaier – Virtanen: 12.02.2025 Time TBA<\/strong>
\nH2H: first meeting<\/strong><\/p>\n

Daniel Altmaier has won three of his last five matches. Last week in Rotterdam, Daniel surprisingly reached the quarterfinals. As we had predicted, he eventually lost against de Minaur in straight sets.<\/a> Daniel won the opening round against Nardi in straight sets this week in Marseille, losing only four games. He offered and saved four breakpoints. It is his first appearance in Marseille.<\/p>\n

Otto Virtanen has lost four of his last five matches. The last match he played before the ATP Marseille was in the Davis Cup two weeks ago, losing against Neumayer in three sets. So far this season, Virtanen has played three tournaments and exited in the opening round each time. This week in Marseille, Otto won the opening round match against Korda in three sets, as we had predicted.<\/a> Around this time last year, Otto played at the Challenger Tour level. He hopes for a solid result this week to stay in the top 100.<\/p>\n

Best Bet to Make<\/h2>\n

According to the bookies, this will be a 50-50 matchup, but we disagree. Daniel never had any success on indoor hard courts. On the other hand, Virtanen had the most significant results on indoor hard courts. He defeated Korda and played great. We expect him to dominate and win this matchup.<\/p>\n

That being said, Virtanen winning is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Value bet\/ the best odds: Otto Virtanen winning @1.80 @bet365<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bublik – Humbert: 12.02.2025 Time TBA<\/strong>
\nH2H: 0-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alexander Bublik has lost three of his last five matches. So far this season, Bublik has played four tournaments and exited three times in the opening round. His only win happened in Marseille, winning against Koepfer in straight sets. Last week in Rotterdam, Bublik lost against Mensik in straight sets. Today in Marseille, Bublik won straight sets in the opening round against Gasquet. He trailed 1-4 in the opening set but successfully turned it around. It is his third appearance in Marseille. He has played two semifinals in Marseille already. Around this time last year, Alexander played in Doha, losing in the quarterfinals against Popyrin in straight sets.<\/p>\n

Ugo Humbert has won four of his last five matches. The last match he played was in the Davis Cup, where he won against Fonseca in straight sets. It is his fourth appearance in Marseille. Ugo is the defending champion in Marseille. Last year, he won the title, winning against Dimitrov in the final in straight sets. He hopes for a solid result this week to cement his top-20 status.<\/p>\n

Best Bet to Make<\/h2>\n

According to the bookies, Humbert is the favorite in this matchup, and we agree. Ugo is the defending champion in Marseille and will have a packed crowd on his side. On the other hand, Bublik has been struggling with his form for the last couple of months. The last time he had consecutive wins was at Wimbledon last season. We expect Humbert to dominate in this match and win easily.<\/p>\n

That being said, Humbert winning in straight sets is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Value bet\/ the best odds: Ugo Humbert winning 2-0 @1.91 @bet365<\/p>\n
