Tennis bets, odds, Ronald Garros: Sinner-Rublev

There is Andrey Rublev on the road between Jannik Sinner and the quarter-finals of Roland Garros, a goal reached in 2020 with the defeat against Rafael Nadal in three sets (7-6 6-4 6-1). The Russian also reached the quarterfinals in Paris only in the edition two years ago, the post Covid one: Stefanos Tsitsipas defeated the current number 7 in the world, also in that case in three sets. Who will return to the quarters? Bookmakers give the Muscovite a slight favorite, but there is very little margin between the two.

If the ATP ranking tip the scales on Rublev’s side (number 7 in the world, Sinner is 12th), the precedents say that the Italian can put the Russian in difficulty: the balance is in fact two victories by Jannik and one by Andrey. Not only that: Rublev won the only match on hard court for the opponent’s retirement, in the round of 16 of the Vienna tournament in 2020. The South Tyrolean then won the next two matches, both on clay: 6- 2 7-6 in the quarter-finals in Barcelona in 2021 and success in three sets (5-7 6-1 6-3) in the round of 16 in Monte Carlo this year, before Sinner was beaten by Zverev in a spectacular and tight match.

PATH

In fact, therefore, Rublev has not yet beaten Sinner, considering the retirement of the Italian after three games in the first previous one. Even the path so far in the tournament can be a further boost for Jannik, who only lost one set in the tournament (in the second round against Carballes Baena) while Andrey always needed four sets to win the three games he played. against Kwon, Delbonis and Garin. Sinner’s balance sheet in the round of 16 is two wins and the same number of defeats (this year he won against De Minaur in Australia), while Rublev won four times out of seven: the last time, in Wimbledon, came the defeat against Marton Fucsovics. For those who win, in the quarter-finals there will be a match against one between Daniil Medvedev – number 2 in the world – and Marin Cilic.
