Might be more depending on what the quallies throw our way.

Back Su-Wei Hsieh to beat Veronica Cepede at 1.80 with Unibet

Hsieh has made it through the qualifiers, Cepede hasn't - and I think that the main reason for that is the fact that Cepede's style isn't all that great for grass. Hsieh knows how to deal with the surface, so I'd have her at 1.57 in this one, not at 1.80.

Back Jay Clarke to beat Marcelo Arevalo at 2.25 with MarathonBet

Clarke is the real deal as far as I'm concerned, so I have to take him at 2.25 here. He's been better than Arevalo on grass so far and he'll play his heart out, so no sense to have him as the underdog here.

Back Steven Diez to beat Gleb Sakharov at 2.55 with MarathonBet

Diez has been taking the preparation more seriously imo, even took a set against Dodig on Sunday before departing for Wimbledon. Might actually be Sakharov's first match on grass?

Back Alejandro Gonzalez to beat Vaclav Safranek at 2.84 with MarathonBet

Already dropped twice and I wouldn't have Alejandro above 1.90 in this one honestly. Safranek is nearly a clay court specialist and he's never done anything above the Challenger level.

Main bet for today is Goerges @1,74

She beated Bellis in 2 short sets 3 days ago. Maybe after losing the final yesterday, she can let it go today, but all in all I think this odd is very good.

Other bets for today:

Basilashvili @1,87

Young @2,34

Duan @3,01

Hsieh @1,8

Ozaki @2,93

Ostapenko @1,89

3 PICKS FOR WIMBLEDON QUALIFICATION MATCHES:

STAKHOVSKY - DE SCHEPPER OVER 22 GAMES @ 1.61 pinnacle
Expect a long match between two excellent grass court players with good serves. All head-to-head matches went over 22 games.

MCGEE-3GAMES OVER RAMIREZ @ 1.57 pinnacle
RUBLEV-DOMINGUES UNDER 18.5 GAMES @ 1.72 bet365
Easy wins for fast court specialists against clay court players.

Back Katy Dunne to beat Ivana Jorovic at 2.55 with MarathonBet

Back Katie Swan to beat Nigina Abduraimova at 2.11 with MarathonBet

Back Vanessa Andreescu to beat Kayla Day at 1.93 with MarathonBet 

Back Su Jeong Jang to beat Rebecca Peterson at 1.72 with MarathonBet 

Back Tereza Smitkova to beat Lizette Cabrera at 1.77 with MarathonBet

Back Ilya Marchenko to beat Benjamin Becker at 1.77 with MarathonBet 

Don't really want to write about every single of these matches, as most of them are based on "feel" anyway. Can see many of the odds getting battered down over the day, so taking them now, although I suppose that one or two of the prices may go up. Katie Swan is probably the pick of the day, I think she should be the favourite against Abduraimova and not the other way around.

Not adding anything for tomorrow, especially after Estrella's show.

Indeed, what a joke.....!!

 

I like Donald Young -3,5 @1,92 for today.

Young is on a good form. He went to QF at Queens being defeated by Cilic.

Donaldson is clearly not a grass player. He only plays one or two games per year on this surface. Last year, he played only one and it was against.... Young at Newport and he lots 6/1 6/3. Last week, he lost 6/1 7/5 against Kamke at Queens...
I expect an easy win.

Shuai Peng to beat Timea Bacsinszky at 1.83 with bet365

I think Timea isn't a player for grass. She does her best work on hardcourts and clay. Shuai has a 2-0 lead head to head over Timea winning on hard both times 2011 and 2012. Both players are equal right now but I think the surface fits the chinese a little bit better and she took care of Fran Schiavone easily in straight sets in her first grass match of the season. With no match on grass since last season Timea will have problems to deal with. Last season she had a bye in Eastbourne just like this season and she lost her first match then against Kristina Mladenovic. Under mentioned circumstances I have to try a bet on the chinese here.

Back Miyu Kato (+4) to beat Asia Muhammad at 1.86 with MarathonBet

Back Alexander Bublik to beat Daniel Brands at 1.93 with MarathonBet

Couldn't see anything else honestly and don't have much to say either. Bublik is probably already better than Brands, while Kato should have enough to keep the match close, as Muhammad is nothing special.

Back S.Bolelli/P.Sousa - Over 3.5 sets at 2.00 with Paddy Power

I've backed Bolelli a couple of times in this season, but he's not delivering as I would expect him to. The shots are all still there, but he's getting too lacklustre at times, so I can't see this being easy for him. Sousa is talented enough to make this competitive.

Back Myrtille Georges (+6) to beat Alison Van Uytvanck at 1.90 with Pinnacle

Back Bianca Andreescu to beat Viktoria Kuzmova at 1.80 with 10Bet

Andreescu is better than Kuzmova, would have her at 1.57 max. Georges has been the surprise package of the qualifiers so far, so she should prove to be a tough task for A.V.U.

Why is reigning junior no.1 Anastasia Potapova priced 2.62 against Elizaveta Kulichova? I mean she's good and coming strong now. I'd beware of this girl because she's got some great skills. Elizaveta has no form at all last two seasons and she's still looking for her big breakthrough. I think Potapova wins this and she might also do some damage in the maindraw.

Anastasia Potapova to beat Elizaveta Kulichkova at 2.62 with bet365

Why is current junior no.1 Anastasia Potapova priced 2.62 against Elizaveta Kulichova? I mean she's good and coming strong now. I'd beware of this girl because she's got some great skills. Elizaveta has no form at all last two seasons and she's still looking for her big breakthrough. I think Potapova wins this and she might also do some damage in the maindraw.

Anastasia Potapova as a junior 15 years old is the reigning  Wimbledon junior championships champion and Nike Junior International Roehampton champion which is played just a week before Wimbledon junior championships in 2016 and Roehampton is where the Wimbledon qualifiers are played. She also reached the quarter final in Wimbledon junior championships at her first attempt in 2015 14 years old. Now she's 16 and as I said she's coming strong here. I strongly believe she will beat Elizaveta Kulichkova who only has played in the Wimbledon junior championships once in 2012 and she went out in the second round. Anastasia outclassed everyone in straight sets in last seasons Wimbledon junior championships including Kayla Day in the semis who she beat by 5-7 6-2 6-0. I think we might have an unpolished grass diamond in Anastasia.

I'm afraid that I've never seen her play, so I've got no idea.

I've got my idea that she's an enormous talent winning her first Wimbledon junior championship only 15 years old and everything seems to work out well for her. Looking at her statistics she's having a quite good first serve winning 61% of her first serve points against Cagla Buyukakcay. She got broken 4 times to but broke Cagla 6 times so it went pretty well for her. As I've written I think it might be a great win for Anastasia. She knows she can handle the surface and it doesn't seem like Elizaveta likes grass at all skipping the grass season completely in 2013, 2014 and 2016. She's only played in Wimbledon once when her ranking was good enough for the maindraw and she beat Yanina Wickmayer by 10-8 in the decider and after that got beaten by Madison Keys in straight sets.
