Re: June 9 - June 15 Andreas Seppi (+1.5 Sets) to beat Philipp Kohlschreiber @ 1.943 Pinnacle Andreas Seppi (+3.5 Games) to beat Philipp Kohlschreiber @ 1.943 Pinnacle I think Kohlschreiber is too short in this match, which probably has something to do with his good showing against Murray at the French Open. Seppi also had a good few days at Roland Garros, and he beat Kohlschreiber on the one occasion they have played each other on grass. It could take both players some time to adapt to a different surface, and so I think three sets are a possibility here. Seppi might not have quite enough to see off Kohlschreiber who is playing at home, but he can play on grass and I think he can be competitive and cover the lines. Aljaz Bedene (+1.5 Sets) to beat Paul-Henri Mathieu @ 1.699 Pinnacle Aljaz Bedene (+3 Games) to beat Paul-Henri Mathieu @ 1.826 Pinnacle Around this time last year, Bedene looked ready to make a breakthrough of sorts but since then he seems to have struggled. His results on the main tour haven't been great, but even so I think he has a good chance of winning this match against Mathieu. The Frenchman has also been in pretty poor form of late, and he lost to Bedene at this tournament last year. If he does manage to beat the Slovenian I think it will be close, and so the handicaps appeal. Dudi Sela to beat James Duckworth @ 1.84 Betfair Despite his poor recent form, I think it's right that Sela is the favourite in this match against Duckworth. The Israeli has had some good results during his career on grass, and he gave Dimitrov a big scare on the surface last year. Duckworth has the advantage of having come through qualifying, but he didn't play anyone of Sela's quality. The Australian lacks grass court experience, and that could be the difference between making the second round or going out in the first. Tim Smyczek (+1.5 Sets) to beat Bernard Tomic @ 1.787 Pinnacle Tim Smyczek (+3.5 Games) to beat Bernard Tomic @ 1.840 Pinnacle I'll start by saying that Tomic should win this match, but he's not a player I can back at the moment due to a succession of lacklustre performances. He played reasonably well in the comfortable home surroundings of Sydney at the start of the year, but since then he has only won a single match. Smyczek isn't in the best of form either, but he can be excused to a degree as his recent matches have been on clay which is not his favourite surface. The American should enjoy the faster conditions here, which might allow him to stay close to Tomic and depending on how motivated the Australian is he might even get the win. Sam Querrey to beat Jeremy Chardy @ 1.96 Betfair Querrey has had a mediocre season so far, and he didn't do too well on grass this time last year and so I can see why the market can't choose between him and Chardy in this match. The Frenchman has been playing quite well on hard and clay in recent times, but for me Querrey is the better grass court player and that's why I'll be backing him. He beat Chardy on the surface a number of years ago which is never a bad thing in my eyes, and I can see Chardy getting frustrated with the extra pop on Querrey's serve which could help the American ease to victory here.
