With two overnight winners and Venus Williams crashing out of the Aussie Open today meaning that Serena is clear favourite at 11/4 (we were on at 4/1 -
http://www.bestbettingtips.co.uk/Free_Tips.html ) it has been a good day so far for Best Betting Tips. Hopefully we’ll carry that on tonight.
Two tennis tips for tonight, but you will notice a few ponderings and thoughts on bets, only bets in bold are official bets for our records.
We’re now reaching round 3 of the championships and the games are starting to get interesting. It’s the first round when seeded players can play each other since the Grand Slams introduced the 32 seeding system. Tonight sees some potentially great matches with Cilic vs Ferrer and Wawrinka vs Berdych looking like they could both go the distance. If anyone is feeling adventurous you could take a Cilic @ 1.67 (4/6) / Wawrinka @ 2.45 (29/20) double at a very good price, however there are better and more suitable bets available tonight.
09.45am 23/01/09 - Aussie Open Men’s 3rd Round : Baghdatis to beat Fish @ 1.65 (13/20 Victors) - 3 Points
Marcos has to be one of the most popular guys on tour and he has always had a good record in Australia. He has struggled in previous 2 years with niggling injuries but he seems to be back in shape and on form again. He openly admits his favourite court is the rebound ace court here at the Aussie Open this year and his results have shown this. A straight sets win in the first round against an ex top 20 player Julian Benneteau was followed up by 4 set win over Robin Soderling. The performance against Soderling was very impressive. The Swede has just come off some major results which saw him seeded 16th this year and yet Marcos made it look easy at times after losing the first set. Marcos is playing Mardy Fish who is seeded at 23. Mardy hasn't really struggled in his opening matches but saying that he has had a very nice draw. Mardy is a big serving and big hitting American who needs pace on the ball. If his "a" game doesn't work then he really struggles and finds it very difficult to find new tactics. Marcos will take all the pace off the ball here and will counter when the right chance comes. I expect Marcos to beat another seed here and may well go through a few more matches.
09.45am 23/01/09 - Aussie Open Men’s 3rd Round : Federer to beat Safin in Straight Sets @ 1.75 (8/11 Betfair) - 2 Points
This is the game that everyone wants to see and some are even talking of a possible huge upset. Personally I don't see it and I think this will go in a similar fashion as recent matches between them. Safin had admitted his is now concentrating on enjoying his game and possibly looking at retirement from the game soon. Safin has been and will always be the same type of player. He has immense talent but lacks the temperament and as soon as a few errors come into his game they begin to flow. As soon as Federer gets on top I expect the game to be very one sided. The only real worry about this bet is if Safin comes out firing winners and takes the first set, maybe taking it in a tie break. The key to this bet is the first set; if Federer takes it then the game should be very one sided.
A big weekend of football approaches with the FA Cup 4th Round along with matches in The Championship, League 1 and League 2. We’re looking into Saturday’s games right now but on Friday Derby host Nottingham Forest with a tight game expected as ex Derby boss Billy Davies’ Forest faces ex Forest forward Nigel Clough’s Derby (got that). Both teams are in the bottom third of the Championship and will welcome the break from the fight for survival for a couple of hours on Friday night. Even though Forest have won four on the bounce in all competitions Derby go into the game as marginal favourites. But with both Clough and Davies having points to prove neither will want to lose this game and when that is the case it’s often a tight one. We’re recommending a “no bet” for this match and keeping our powder dry for the weekend’s other games, but if you do absolutely have to have something on it you could do much worse than the 3.4 (12/5) about the draw on Betfair or even the 0-0 at a shade over 10/1.
Good luck,
