Wimbledon Men’s Competition

Since Lleyton Hewitt back in 2002, no other player has been able to lift the Wimbledon trophy besides the players from the ‘big four’ (Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray). Roger Federer leads the race with seven titles while Novak Djokovic has claimed the trophy on three different occasions. On the other hand, Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal are trying to match Djokovic’s record after winning two titles already at the All England Club.

Due to Federer’s brilliant record in 2017 and exceptional results on this event, he’s the main favorite to win the title @3.50 at Coral. Nevertheless, the Swiss won’t have an easy task this Monday against the talented Grigor Dimitrov. Known as one of the best grass-court players on the ATP World Tour, Dimitrov is also the 2008 Wimbledon junior champion. For that reason, there is clear value on his +2.5 Set Handicap for this contest @1.88 with Pinnacle.

Djokovic Back at the Top?

Besides Dimitrov, the seven-time champion may also face Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals. The Serbian is returning to his best level after a slow start to the season and he is a dangerous opponent for Federer. Adding to this, Novak also won two consecutive Wimbledon finals against the Swiss in 2014 and 2015. Pinnacle offers @4.52 for Djokovic to win the title, a very interesting price that definitely presents some value.

On the top half of the draw, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray are the undeniable favorites to make it into the final. In addition to these two, the 2014 US Open champion – Marin Cilic – is also a player to keep an eye on this event. That said, Cilic to reach the final @7.50 at Bet365 is also an interesting approach for this tournament.

Taking a look now at the matches scheduled for this Monday on the men’s competition, the contest between Dominic Thiem and Tomas Berdych clearly deserves a closer look. Despite Dominic’s brilliant results in recent months, the 23-year-old Austrian is far from a grass-court expert. On the other hand, Berdych is famous for playing his best tennis at the All England Club. With this in mind, Tomas to win this match @1.91 at William Hill is one of the most valuable bets for this Monday’s action.

Wimbledon Women’s Competition

After Jelena Ostapenko’s shocking victory in the French Open, it’s hard to predict which player will leave Wimbledon with the title. Moreover, the two main favorites – Karolina Pliskova and Petra Kvitova – are already out of the competition.

With the ranking leadership at stake, Angelique Kerber needs to win the title to remain world’s no.1. However, the 29-year-old German has been far from impressive throughout this tournament. Adding to this, Kerber will have to face Garbine Muguruza in the following round.

In addition to Garbine’s sensational campaign on this event, the 2016 French Open champion won all their last four meetings. Therefore, Muguruza is definitely the player to back on this match @1.70 with Pinnacle.

The former world no.1 – Victoria Azarenka – is trying to return to her best after spending more than a year away from competition due to pregnancy. Despite the long absence, the two-time Australian Open champion is always a threat on the big stages. Due to her impressive performances at this event, Azarenka is one of the most valuable players to win the tournament @15.00 at Ladbrokes.

Besides the value on Victoria’s outright, the 27-year-old Belarusian is also an interesting bet for this Monday @2.45 at Pinnacle.
