Tennis in Cincy 8/13
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard vs. Zhizhen Zhang
The court speeds in Cincinnati tend to be extremely fast, so that favors massive servers like Mpetshi Perricard in a big way. The Frenchman, who stands at 6-foot-8 and almost looks like a tennis version of Victor Wembanyama, has one of the biggest serves on tour, which is part of the reason he’s holding at 88.9% this season. And realistically, that alone makes it hard to imagine a scenario in which Zhang will win this match. While Zhang is a player with all-court power and a massive edge from the baseline against Mpetshi Perricard, he can occasionally play some loose service games. His hold percentage is down at 81.5% on hard courts over the last 52 weeks, and he gives his opponents a good amount of break point opportunities. Well, that should ultimately doom him against Mpetshi Perricard in these conditions. Also, even if these guys both hold all the way to tiebreakers, that would give a slight nod to Mpetshi Perricard. The young Frenchman has won eight of the 12 tiebreakers he has played in 2024. Zhang has lost 13 of the 22 he has played.
Bet: Mpetshi Perricard ML (+102 – 1.5 units)
