Painteur

Just stopped by to say you're on fire this week!  and watching Alcaraz, the kid is brilliant. I don't think we'll see him many times with an odd of 3.
I think he'll be facing Zverev next round, probably a similar odd. 

Usually don't post in here as I surely don't know enough about tennis and I'd embarrass myself but any thoughts on Coric v Opelka?
Coric got to the final last year and lost to Medvedev.. who lost to Opelka in the last round. Points for Coric to defend but it looks like a flip of a coin. (and that's what the odds suggest).
 
 

I know this is not a forum but I think there's something wrong with Venus, she doesn't look concentrated. I've put a considerable stake on her but I'll cash out now (4-5 1st set).

Kenny de Schepper to beat Ilya Marchenko at 2.10 with bet365
I like Kenny today again. He already has beaten Ilya on indoor hardcourt in france before in Rennes back in 2012 on the challenger circuit in straight sets. He played well yesterday so I fancy his chances again today.
Richard Gasquet/Malek Jaziri under 20.50 games at 1.90 with bet365
I simply like this line because Malek usually is not good enough to play against top quality opponents like Richard. Especially not in france in a tournament against top quality french opposition. Richard comes into this well rested from his davis cup performance while Malek also has played a few matches since last friday in best of 5 sets twice beating the swedes Patrik Rosenholm and Isak Arvidsson and then a three set match against Tristan Lamasine where he turned the match around after losing first set 6-1. If something similar happens in first set today there likely is no way back for Malek as Richard is quite good when it comes to shutting the door against lesser opponents. I also remember a few months ago I think in octobre when Malek had won 2 matches in Metz and got taught a lesson by Gilles Simon losing 7-6 6-0. Malek is running into some big problems today of how to handle the previous champions smart tactical play from the baseline. Malek might make a tie-break but should be going down in at least one set by a double break. If he makes a tie-break the bet might be lost since I don't count on something like 6-0 6-1 happening for sure. 7-6 6-2 is not enough but I'll have to hope for Richard to close the door early on and never allow Malek into the match.
