Jo Wilfried Tsonga vs Jarkko Nieminen
My pick is Jo Wilfried Tsonga -151 at pinnaclesports 30 units !
Preview by andre
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga literally owned Lleyton Hewitt on his hometown. Hewitt was looking for revenge for his Queen's defeat at the hands of Tsonga and all he got was an even bigger beatdown. The French is another player that likes to serve & volley and just like Llodra, he has been doing quite well this week doing it. He likes to play left handed players, as you can see for his Wimbledon win over Feliciano Lopez and his almost unbreakable serve makes him be able to take risks on the return games, which ends up giving him at least one break per set most of the times. If all of this wasn't enough, he is almost mentally very strong and he has a success rate of 71% in tie-breaks in the last twelve months.
Jarkko Nieminen had a very long match against Vince Spadea that certainly made him tired. Nieminen just won by 7:6 6:7 7:6 and he took almost three hours to get the win. In a match that had a lot of running and long points, Nieminen won't be at 100% with less than 18 hours to recover from yesterday's game, something terrible for him, as Tsonga hits the ball with a lot of power, which will obligate the Finnish player to run a lot, on a match that will be played with very high temperatures. Nieminen is a good returner, but Tsonga won't give a lot of chances to break, while Nieminen's serve is attackable and Tsonga will be all over Nieminen's second serves and even some first serves.
Tsonga must be confident after destroyed Hewitt 6:4 6:2 on his hometown, while Nieminen will be tired after playing the max games the match allowed against Spadea. The Finnish was a break down in the third set and he had to run a lot at the end of the game, something that left him really tired. So, I've no other option than go with Tsonga in here .
