After a good start to the week, I am heading to the next first-round match of the ATP 500 tournament in Rotterdam. It is between the players of Borna Coric from Croatia and Alexander Bublik from Kazakhstan. This is a repeat match from the final in Montpellier a week ago, when both players met (a game that finished 2-1 for Bublik).
Borna Coric vs Alexander Bublik Betting Preview
The Croatian is having a great season, and it is no surprise for anyone that he reached the final in Montpellier a week ago. His tennis is solid, and I am sure that if there are no injuries in the next few months, he will achieve even better results on hard courts. Indeed, the draw wasn’t that friendly to him, but still, Bublik is an opponent who can be defeated, especially if Coric is playing just like he did in France. Here, the court is not that fast, and this will be to his advantage.
Alexander Bublik, on the other side, is probably one of the strongest indoor hard players at the moment. With the title he won in Montpellier, he will be one of the main favourites for winning Rotterdam, too. His service is doing 50% of the job, and with the powerful forehand he possesses, all points look so easy. His physics is also outstanding, which was seen in France, where all his games finished in three-setters, and he still found a way to win the title.

Betting Tip – Borna Coric vs Alexander Bublik
I will go with a little bit of unorthodox betting tip here. I think that finally, we will see a two set match from Alexander Bublik. I know that it is a big chance to see over in the game line, but it can be in straight sets. Coric will try to win, but I am not quite sure if he will be that good in his second time against Bublik. Of course, I cannot go for Bublik because we all know how unstable he is, and I will rely on the fact that any of both players can win 2-0. In my opinion, if Bublik takes the first set, he has enormous chances to win the second as well. Moreover, the odds are on our side, 66% of this to happen, which on these odds is like a value bet to me.
