Last year in Melbourne, He lost in the third round against Fritz in four sets.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, this will be a 50-50 match, and we agree. Both players played and served well in the opening matches. We expect them to hold their service games easily. If they do so, we expect another marathon match with possible tiebreaks.

That being said, over games is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: over 40.5 games @1.83 @bet365

Sinner – Giron: 18.01.2025 Time TBA
H2H: 1-0

Jannik Sinner has won 19 straight matches. In the Australian Open, Sinner defeated Jarry in straight sets, as we predicted. His last loss was in October in Beijing, losing against Alcaraz in the final. Yesterday, in the second round, Sinner defeated Schoolkate in four sets. Surprisingly, he lost the first set 4-6. However, he reduced his unforced errors and successfully turned the match around. Jannik is the defending champion in the Australian Open. Last year, Sinner defeated Medvedev in five sets after being 0-2 down. According to the bookies, Jannik is the biggest favorite to win the title in Melbourne.

Marcos Giron has won four of his last five matches. Last week in Adelaide, Giron reached the quarterfinals, losing against Auger-Aliassime in straight sets. In the opening Australian Open round, Giron defeated Hanfmann in four tight sets after losing the first set 2-6. Yesterday, in the second round, Marcos defeated Etcheverry in five sets. This time, Marcos spent over four hours on the court. Last year in Melbourne, Giron lost in the opening round against Draper in five sets.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Sinner is the big favorite in this matchup, and we agree. Giron has no weapons for Janik’s game. Jannik is the best player in the world right now and has 19 consecutive wins. We expect him to dominate from the very start until the end.

That being said, Sinner covering the games handicap is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Jannik Sinner -8.5 games handicap @1.91 @bet365
