    Kecmanovic to beat Thompson - 2.40 with Sportingbet
    I've been greatly impressed with how Kecmanovic has played in this tournament- he hasn't dropped a set yet. He also beat Thompson in 2018 (although on a hard court).

    The obvious reason for the high odds around Paire is because of the inherent uncertainty about how long he wants to stay in the tournament given the grand slam next week. Also it's Paire, who is quite a temperamental player.

    Svitoliva is 5.00 to come back against Cornet on bet365.
    Set and a break down with play ended for the day because of rain. Both players have awful records in this tournament and both are pretty poor on grass too. But i just feel the suspended play will help Svitolina regroup and come back tomorrow with a much better performance which she is very capable of.

    Feliciano Lopez to beat (-1.5 sets) Gilles Simon at 2.60 with Betfair
    @money44 I'm with you on Feli all the way here. He's gonna beat Gilles in two tomorrow without a doubt. I'm fully confident. I base my confidence on Feli having a 5-2 record in this matchup and they've met 4 times on grass and Feli has won all 4 times and dropping just one set in the process. Feli looked superb today when he beat the teenager Felix A-A and this Queens club final has all the signs of a two set win for Feli.

    FAA v Lopez (Queens) - over 23.5 games at 1.83 with Sportingbet
    Simple reasoning here: both have strong serves so I feel we will definitely have at least one TB here. Although FAA is of course the better player, Lopez has held his serve a high percentage of the time. I doubt Lopez will break FAA's serve.

    Auger-Aliassime to beat Tsitsipas at 2.30 with Bet365
    Tsitsipas almost lost yesterday from the French veteran Chardy, but eventually managed to beat him with two tiebreaks. He allowed  four breaks and many break points. FAA was incredible against Dimitrov, served incredibly and then against Kyrgios not allowed to be break. The Canadian defeated both of his matches against Tsitsipas so far and I see no reason not to continue his winning way.

    Diego Schwartzman to beat Marin Cilic at 5.00 with Betfair
    I like how Diego has played on the grass when he met Sascha Bublik and I think he could trouble Marin big time.

    WTA is more unpredictable than the ATP and that is a fact. For example, do you know that we have 10 different woman players that have won RG in the last 12 years? We only have 3 male players that have won RG in the last 12 years. During this RG Halep was paid very similar than Nadal to win RG (that is ridicolous considering that Halep has won only 1 GS and Nadal has 18 including 12 RG..). Everytime a GS is coming we all know that the men's title will be disputed by 3 or 4 players but the women's title has become a lottery. Probably this will change when some players take a step but now this is the situation. Obviously im not saying that there are no suprising results in the ATP im just saying that the WTA is more unpredictable than the ATP.

    Cristian Garin to beat (+1.5 set) Borna Coric at 1.71 with Pinnacle
    Borna lacks that offensive firepower to blow Cristian off the court. I can't imagine Cristian not to take a set here because he's played well enough this tournament for that to happen and Borna didn't play great last match when he beat Taylor Fritz. Cristian should have a decent chance for a set here.

    ATP s'Hertogenbosch
    Robin Haase @2.47 Pinnacle 4/10
    Haase looked great vs. Humbert in the first round. Was serving very well. Grass is maybe his favorite surface, personally of course, he's a former junior Wimbledon finalist (losing to Chardy in 2005). I think he can be dangerous to anyone on grass and especially in the early stages of the grass season he's very dangerous as he is adapting quickly. I don't think Garin should be the favorite. I like my action on Haase here, in my opinion he has good chances to reach the quarterfinal at his home tournament.

    But Djokovic did leave the court - both yesterday and today - without seemingly consulting the umpire. I mean yesterday Thiem was still on the court when Djokovic had left. Obviously this is slightly separate from calling off the match yesterday, but it's still shocking sportmanship. He did again today at 40-40 on his serve today.

    I don't know - Konta at least had some form going into the FO - a final in Rome.

    But I guess as always is whether she can maintain her level that she did against Stephens....but her opponent in the SF is probably easier for Konta than Stephens in the sense that Stephens is a proven 'big stage' player. Also Konta beat this opponent in Rome. However as @darko08 said, the WTA side is so unpredictable, who really knows...

    I think the above is a fair assessment. Against Martic, Vondrousova started to choke big time by being passive and serving poorly, but recovered just in time for Martic to have her own mini-choke. Konta is a bit more stable usually, but it's not something I'd like to trust pre-match. As for the second match, it really is a hard task for Anisimova mentally, she could really use a day off here.

    Dominique Thiem vs Karen Khachanov Over 37.5 Games at 1.80 with Marathonbet
    I think Khachanov can trouble Thiem more than the odds suggest. Thiem has dropped a set against Tommy Paul, Bublik and Cuevas so i think we can have a long match here.
    Novak Djokovic to beat (3-0) Alexander Zverev at 1.95 with Marathonbet
    Zverev has suffered against Millman (5 Sets), Lajovic (5 Sets) and Fognini (4 Sets) while Nole has win all his matches in 3 sets. I think this will be an easy match for the Djoker.
    Madison Keys to beat Ashleigh Barty at 2.43 with 888
    I don't why Barty is only payed at 1.50-1.55. I know she is playing very solid but the match will but in the racket of Keys considering the defensive style of Barty. If she's accurate and can control Barty's wicked slices she can get this.
    Amanda Anisimova (+5.5 Games) to beat Simona Halep at 1.87 with 888
    Halep has destroyed Tsurenko and Swiatek but she also has dropped a set against Tomljanovic and Magda Linette. If Anisimova doesn't get nervous i think she can trouble Halep with her offensive game (at least to cover this handicap). Anisimova has not dropped any set in the whole tournament.
    This is what i got for tomorrow. Too many bet i know ? but anybody is forced to follow them. GL.
