Prediction: Adam Walton VS Andrey Rublev 2025-05-29
The battle of the titans... or not. Adam Walton, the plucky Australian, is looking to pull off the upset of the century against the 17th seeded Andrey Rublev. I mean, who needs experience and skill when you've got heart, right?
All joking aside, Rublev is a formidable opponent with 17 ATP titles under his belt, and he's been playing some solid tennis lately. Walton, on the other hand, is still basking in the glory of his first Grand Slam singles win. It's a great story, but let's be real, he's in way over his head here.
The odds are heavily in favor of Rublev, with most bookmakers pricing him at around 1.02. That's not exactly a surprise, given the massive gap in skill and experience between the two players. The spread is set at around 8.5 games, which seems about right considering Rublev's dominance on the court.
My best bet for this match is Rublev to cover the spread (-8.5 games) at 1.8 with BetMGM. I know, I know, it's not exactly a bold pick, but sometimes you just have to go with the obvious choice. Rublev should win this match comfortably, and I expect him to take it in straight sets.
As for the total games, I'm leaning towards the under (29.5 games) at 1.83 with Bovada. Rublev's been known to finish off his opponents quickly, and I don't see Walton putting up much of a fight.
So, there you have it. Rublev to win, Rublev to cover, and under 29.5 games. Not exactly a thrilling prediction, but hey, sometimes you just have to go with the odds.
