Burruchaga – Khachanov: 09.05.2025 Time TBA<\/strong> Roman Andres Burruchaga has won four of his last five matches. This week in Rome, Burruchaga qualified for the main draw tournament, winning both qualifying matches in three tight sets. The Argentine defeated Sonego in straight sets in the opening main draw round.<\/p>\n Karen Khachanov has won three of his last five matches. His last match was in Madrid, where he lost against Paul in the third round in three tight sets. Last season in Rome, Khachanov lost against Tabilo in the fourth round.<\/p>\n According to the bookies, Khachanov is the favourite in this matchup, and we agree. He is a more experienced player, especially at the Masters 1000 level. His experience will prevail in this match; we expect him to win in straight sets.<\/p>\n That being said, Khachanov winning in straight sets is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: Karen Khachanov winning 2-0 @1.80 @bet365<\/strong><\/p>\n Comesana – Rune: 09.05.2025 Time TBA<\/strong> Francisco Comesana has won three of his last five matches. Two weeks ago in Madrid, Comesana lost in the third round against Cerundolo in straight sets. He hopes for a solid result this week to reach the top 50 in the rankings. This week in Rome, Comesana won the opening round against Altmaier in straight sets.<\/p>\n Holger Rune has won four of his last five matches. His last match was in Madrid, where he retired mid-match against Cobolli in the second round. Last season in Rome, Rune lost in the third round against Baez in three tight sets.<\/p>\n According to the bookies, Rune is the favourite in this matchup, but we disagree. Comesana is playing his best tennis and will be confident coming into this match. On the other hand, Rune retired in his last match, and we are not sure if he is fully fit for this match. We expect Comesana to put up a big fight and keep this match tight.<\/p>\n That being said, Comesana covering the games handicap is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: Francisco Comesana +4.5 games handicap @-132 @FanDuel<\/strong><\/p>\n Dimitrov – Passaro: 09.05.2025 Time TBA<\/strong> Grigor Dimitrov has won three of his last five matches. Last week in Madrid, Dimitrov lost in the 1\/8-Finals against Diallo in three tight sets.<\/p>\n Francesco Passaro has won three of his last five matches. Passaro defeated Tseng in the opening round in three sets this week in Rome. Last season in Rome, Passaro lost in the third round against Borges in three tight sets.<\/p>\n According to the bookies, Dimitrov is the big favourite in this matchup, but we disagree. Passaro enjoys playing in Rome. He played well in the opening round. On the other hand, Dimitrov struggled with his form last week in Madrid. We expect Passaro to keep this match tight with the help of the crowd.<\/p>\n That being said, Passaro covering the games handicap is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: Francesco Passaro +4.5 games handicap @1.83 @bet365<\/p>\n Main Photo Credit: Susan Mullane-USA TODAY Sports<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ATP Masters 1000 Rome 1\/32-Finals Burruchaga – Khachanov: 09.05.2025 Time TBA H2H: first meeting Roman Andres Burruchaga has won four of his last five matches.
