I'm gonna put my money on Antoine Hoang to beat Jiri Vesely in Pune. The Frenchmen came through 2 qualification matches and is in good competitive condition. I think he has the potential to be a Top-100 ATP player. Vesely, the higher rank player and slight favourite here must be at his top level, which I don't think so, to win this match-up. Therefore Hoang can take advantage of the situation to open his account in the main draw of the ATP. Happy New Year ALL

There was nothing strange in this match: Berdych T. vs Kohlschreber P. (It was a 50-50 match-up) Berdych, the younger player at the age of 33 obliged with a win... 6-4, 7-6(7-5) Congrats to Berdych's takers

Congrats on your come-from-behind win! 6-4, 6-7, 7-6

N. Osaka to beat C. Pliskva @1.50

CzechPunter, congrats for your double on Siniakova and Buzarnescu bets. I saw that Siniakova was physically stretched in her very close win and she was also not mentally prepared to go any further in this slam. Do you think Giorgi C. can take her down in 2 sets? Thanks in advance and hope you reply soon.

Caroline Wozniacki to win Eastbourne C'ships @1.40

M. Cilic is an experience player and has been consistent this year while young A; Zverev seems to be struggling with form but he has been very successful this season winning 5 titles and beating the likes of Djokovic and Federer. Zverev is a debutant in OS arena while Cilic is making his 3rd appearance but that does not mean is an advantge as Zverev is 3-1 H2H, beating his more experience opponent in their last 3 encounters. He has an 11-day break after exiting from the first round of the Paris Masters which he did not seem to take it seriously but instead planning of preparing himself physically and mentally to do well in this London Final tournament. I think he is well prepared and will rise to the occasion. A. Zverev to beat Cilic @ 1.93

I am taking Chung to beat Rublev again like 3 days ago since nothing has changed - except H2H 2-0 - but it may not be 3-0 again this time since it is a final and not round-robin group match. Chung to win the final @1.65

Sabalenka to beat Stephens in Fed Cup Women Final @2.3. Stephens is in a downtrend after US Open victory whereas Saba continued to play good tennis. WIth the hostile homecrowd behind especially being an international match, Saba might see through this first-time encounter between these 2 players.

My 7-match prediction in Asian Handicap for Brazil Serie A: BAHIA LVLP. PRETA -0.25CORINTHIANS LVLBATAFOGO +0.5CRUZEIRO +0.5SANTOS -1PALMEIRAS -0.25

Rublev played a 5-set late night match. Chung is in better form and rest better. Chung -1.5 set @ 1.75

Thanks, Czech. I will go with Mannarino ML.being playing in home country and likely to be more motivated and considering at this time of the year Ferrer will suffer from fatigue.

Hi Czech, what do you think about Mannarino vs Ferrer in ATP Paris? I fancy Mannarino's chance to win here. Do you think Ferrer has anything left in his tank at this time to overcome his 6-year-younger opponent? Or anyone's opinion?

Now Halep has to win to advance and Svito only playing for pride. The more motivated Halep will probably win this match against a not-so-good form Svito who also does not like the slow surface in SIngapore and I reckon a 2-0 win for Halep. Halep -1.5 Set

GARCIA +3.5 If she plays like today (vs Svitolina), very composed, it will be a close one vs Halep.
