Sasnovich looks like a good bet to me also, despite how much I like Svitolina as a player. I'm only very slightly worried about her lack of clay court practice, but she should nevertheless be better physically.

Leylah Fernandez to beat Mirra Andreeva at 1.62 with William Hill Mirra Andreeva is the next big thing in tennis, and she has a 13-0 record to her name so far this year. However, she's yet to face a player of Fernandez's calibre, and I think that she won't be able to deal with the consistency that Fernandez can bring to the table. She's a legitimate top 20 player when she's in form, and she rarely loses to worse players (aside from the odd loss against Bonaventure at the start of the season, she's lost only against other top players so far in this season).

Good shout on Fritz!

I like all the picks here, really, not much to add myself. Sabalenka looked good against Krejcikova as well, much better than expected!

Haven't had much time to watch this week, so I only fancy Ruud from the short odds today.

All look like decent favorites, perhaps not Altmaier, as Karatsev finally got some wins together in the qualifiers!

Well, Rublev did it! Marc-Andrea Huesler (-3.5) to beat Kyle Edmund at 1.70 with Unibet I really liked Edmund back in the day, but he's struggling even in Futures tournaments now, and he'll be up against a quality opponent in home conditions here, so I don't see him making much of a dent. Last week, he struggled to beat the world's no. 353 and then lost to the world's no. 1992, which tells you a lot, really.

Rooting for Rublev today, but the odds seem right to me.

Tereza Martincova to beat Jessika Ponchet at 1.40 with William Hill Martincova played a splendid match against Rus yesterday, she was hitting all the lines and just completely outplayed her opponent. Ponchet has never been particularly good on clay and she's faced worse opponents here, so I like even such short odds here.

Martina Trevisan to beat Viktoria Hruncakova at 1.55 with Pinnacle Hruncakova - formerly Kuzmova - is having an awful season, as she's fallen out of the main tour and is now struggling even on the ITF one. Trevisan, on the other hand, is holding steady around the top 20, and I think that she has an even bigger edge than the odds suggest.

Should be another win for Svitolina today, but the odds are way lower than yesterday. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova to beat Arantxa Rus at 1.55 with Unibet This is my short-priced fav for today, as Pavs showed enough to win cleanly yesterday, and, like Svitolina, she seems to be truly interested in winning here. Rus has results only against worse opponents in her recent form book.

Elina Svitolina to beat Elena Gabriela Ruse at 1.62 with William Hill I'll go with one ITF pick today. This will be Svitolina's second match after her return to the courts, but she performed above the expectations in her first match, and Ruse is in such a bad form herself that I think the odds are worth it. If Svitolina plays like she did against Putintseva, it should be comfortable, even.

Miomir Kecmanovic to beat Lorenzo Musetti at 2.00 with William Hill Miomir looks like the bet for today to me, he's been on the up recently, while Musetti has been going down for a while now, and the rest time should be sufficient for Kecmanovic to have a better shot than the odds suggest imo. If you're losing to Muller on clay, you shouldn't be a fav against Kecmanovic.

Jan-Lennard Struff to beat Albert Ramos at 1.62 with William Hill Ramos hasn't won a match in ages, and, while the return to clay should help, Struff did rather well in the qualifiers here, and should be primed to win this as well. Beating Varillas and Ruusuvuori is no easy feat, and he should be fitter than Ramos these days as well.

Monte Carlo!

Just a note - Houston will continue to be troubled by rain, so keep that in mind.

Not really interested in anything today, but watching Thiem sure is painful these days, even on clay.

Marie Bouzkova to beat Cristina Bucsa at 1.44 with William Hill Bouzkova usually beats players of Bucsa's level, and she should be really hungry here given how her season has been going so far. Bucsa is decent, don't get me wrong, but I don't exactly like her on clay.
