Top Tennis Betting Picks of the Week (May 1st, 2023)

ATP – Mutua Madrid Open – Madrid, Spain – Fourth Round

  • When: Tuesday, May 2nd, 2023

Karen Khachanov vs. Andrey Rublev

Khachanov played great tennis in his first matches at the Mutua Madrid Open. In the first round, the underdog in this beat Thiago Monteiro. Then in the second round, Khachanov got by Roberto Bautista Agut.

Andrey Rublev is also playing great Tennis. Rublev got by Stan Wawrinka 7-5, 6-4. Then in his next, Rublev beat Yoshika Nishioka 6-2, 7-5. Although Khachanov required 3 sets to win his first two matches, and Rublev required just 2 sets in each of his first two matches, the odds make Khachanov the play. Karen can beat the favorite.

Tennis Betting Pick: Karen Khachanov +158

Borna Coric vs. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina

Underdog Borna Coric played great in his first 2 matches of this tournament. Coric got by Hugo Gaston 6-3, 6-3 before taking down Hubert Hurkacz 7-6 (7-3), 6-3.

After easily winning his first match, Fokina struggled in his second. It took the chalk in these 3 sets and 2 tiebreaker sets to beat Holger Rune. The long match may have taken something out of Alejandro. Coric gets the nod.

Tennis Betting Pick: Borna Coric +151

Jaume Munar vs. Daniel Altmaier

In his first match, Jaume Munar outlasted Thanasi Kokkinakis, winning two tiebreakers. Munar then beat Tallon Griekspoor after that one retired.

The favorite in this played great in his third match. After losing the first set, Munar rallied to beat Matteo Arnaldi 6-3, 6-1 in the next two sets. Altmaier is a good tennis player, but Munar is on a mission.

Tennis Betting Pick: Jaume Munar -164

Carlos Alcaraz vs. Alexander Zverev

Alcaraz is the top ranked tennis player in the world for a reason. But although Alcaraz seems unbeatable right now, he takes part in the Mutua Madrid Open after winning the Barcelona Open in his last tournament played, Carlos can lose focus at times.

An example is how Alcaraz lost his first set of this tournament 2-6 to Emil Ruusuvuori. Carlos rallied to win the next couple of sets, but the opening set loss is a sign Zverev can pull off the upset victory.

Tennis Betting Pick: Alexander Zverev +347

Aslan Karatsev vs. Daniil Medvedev

Karatsev is playing decent tennis. But he required a tiebreaker to get by Laszlo Djer in the first round and three sets to get by Alex De Minaur in his third round contest.

Daniil Medvedev also required three sets to get by his last opponent. Medvedev, though, has won 4 singles titles already this year. Daniil gets it done.

Tennis Betting Pick: Daniil Medvedev -312

h3>WTA – Mutua Madrid Open – Madrid, Spain – Quarterfinals
  • When: Tuesday, May 2nd, 2023

Mayar Sherif vs. Aryna Sabalenka

The underdog in this has shown a lot of toughness in her last couple of matches. Mayar Sherif beat Caroline Garcia after taking a tiebreaker in the third round. In the fourth, Sherif bounced back after losing the second 0-6 to win the third set 6-4 in a match against Elise Mertens.

But although Sherif is playing lights out, favored Aryna Sabalenka has played like the Mutua Madrid Open winner. Aryna hasn’t lost a set this tournament. The chalk rolls.

Tennis Betting Pick: Aryna Sabalenka -667
