Why Bet on Carlos Alcaraz?

After flexing his muscles on clay, 19-year-old Carlos Alcaraz did just enough to escape the opening round of the 2022 Wimbledon men’s singles tournament, needing all five sets to dispatch Jan-Lennard Struff.

Similar to his fellow Spanish standout Rafael Nadal, Alcaraz is more known for his prowess on the clay courts than on grass. In fact, the Murcia native only has three-career matches on grass thus far, with a 2-1 record thus far; all played in Wimbledon.

Then again, this small sample size of matches played on grass should not deter Alcaraz’s overall form of late. The fifth-seeded Spaniard won at least four matches in each of his last three starts at a tournament; albeit with all three of those events having been played on clay.

Why Bet on Tallon Griekspoor?

Perhaps playing in lots of grass-court tourneys leading up to Wimby is working out rather nicely for Tallon Griekspoor, who eliminated former Australian Open doubles champion Fabio Fognini in the first round in four sets, losing only the opening set before running away with the huge victory.

That’s now three straight second-round appearances at a Grand Slam event for Griekspoor, who won his first-ever match at Wimby and currently sits as the 53rd-best male tennis player in the world. The Dutch challenger has won six matches on grass heading into London, which gives him solid momentum for his upcoming match against a top-five opponent in the tourney.

Griekspoor has had two matches against Alcaraz in the past, with each man having a win over the other. Although Alcaraz won their latest encounter at Estoril earlier this year, it was Griekspoor who drew first blood in their rivalry in the quarterfinal stage at Montpellier a few weeks prior to their second meeting.

Alcaraz vs. Griekspoor 2022 Wimbledon Betting Trends

• Alcaraz is 18-5 in his last five matches, which includes a win at the Miami Open.
• Alcaraz is 14-6 lifetime in Grand Slam events since the start of 2021.
• As mentioned earlier, Griekspoor is 6-4 in his last 10 matches played on grass this year.
• Griekspoor is 3-5 lifetime in Grand Slam tournaments.

Carlos Alcaraz vs. Tallon Griekspoor Expert Betting Prediction

In terms of seeding alone, it’s obvious that Alcaraz has the edge in the matchup. However, Alcaraz did not look good in his first match in Wimby, whereas Griekspoor looked more prepared and has also had more preparation in general with more warm-up matches on grass entering the tournament. As such, consider this second-round showdown more like a coin flip rather than a predictably easy win for the consensus favorite.
