Miami Open Men’s SF
Call me a bandwagoner, but I’m sure many betting websites did not see Roger Federer’s sterling start to 2017 coming.
The Swiss is on par to win another important tournament that will help him climb the ATP rankings. With Rafa Nadal battling on the other bracket, many online betting fans will root for a rematch of the Australian Open.
Betting odds will surely be interesting for Federer. Can he make it back to the final?
Nick Kyrgios vs Roger Federer
Federer knows better than anyone to not look too far ahead and focus on bringing down Australia’s Nick Kyrgios.
The 21-year-old quickly rose up the ranks and made his case as one of the world’s most elite tennis players. The Aussie’s powerful serves and aggressive style of play may be able to take several points away from the World No6.
However, I don’t think Federer will let up too much this time. He is too prolific a player to be affected by Kyrgios. What’s more likely to happen is that the young gun will blow his top while Federer coolly does him in. This match is an easy punt for Federer, with a -1.50 handicap rewarding punters with 2.40. Kyrgios offers +1.50 @ 1.55.
Rafael Nadal vs Fabio Fognini
Rafael Nadal will be looking to face his rival in the final and get even over Australia. Fabio Fognini will pose an interesting challenge to the Spaniard, but Nadal should win this game easily if nothing goes wrong.
Both Nadal and Fognini won their QF games easily and know a lot about the other’s games, so this will be an interesting spectacle. The two won each of their last two hardcourt games, but Nadal has had more success in tournaments so far.
I believe that we will see another Federer-Nadal final, so punters will likely choose Nadal with -1.50 @ 1.60. However, the Italian’s form in this tournament has been top-notch. He can take a set from Nadal, so it is also wise to consider Fognini’s +1.50 handicap for the whopping odds of 2.31.
