Second round
Sonego 2.42 v Tabilo 1.69
Due to start at 7 pm
Sonego 1-0 (Aug 2022, hard, 2 sets). Hard win %’s are better for Tabilo.
Sonego lost in the first round last year. 3 sets win over Griekspoor as underdog in the first round this week.
He reached the second round of the Australian Open. Three other ATP 2nd rounds in 2024. Third round in Shanghai. Second round of the US Open.
Tabilo beat Tiafoe in 2 sets as underdog in the first round. He won the title in Auckland in January.
2024 ATP hard stats are better for Tabilo.
Back Tabilo around 2.00 to 2.20 and remove liability at 1.55.
I am often asked if the tips are intended to be backed and left to run.
The short answer is “NO”. The slightly longer answer is “HELL NO”. The long answer is that I very rarely leave a back bet to run until the end of the match. I can think of just 2 occasions in the last year. The clue is in the title of the site. The tips are for TRADING.
The aim of the match picks on here and in the Daily Trading Tips emails is to give you a value entry point. After that you need to manage your position. If you have little tennis trading experience here are some simple ways to manage the trade:
Once the price has reached the target price and you have entered your first trade you are waiting for a significant price move in your favour. This can be a break of serve or your player wins the set. Then you should remove some or all of your liability (risk).
If your player does not perform well and gets broken after you have entered the trade then you can exit with a loss.
