Flushing Meadows, New York – As the first round of the US Open wraps up, the second round gets going with defending champion [1] Roger Federer taking on [Q] Paul Capdeville. Hardly a shocker – Federer is favored at a whopping -20000 by the oddsmakers at BetUS tennis betting thrills.

US OPEN Second Round Tennis Betting Picks:

Tennis Prediction: – This matchup is a no brainer. Federer is the sure play. No second thoughts!

Tennis : – Federer in straight sets.

Tennis Prediction: – Favored at -350, Isner is the favorite in this matchup. Arriving on a wild card, Isner’s value is strengthened by his home court advantage. By all indications, Isner should advance into the third round with a relatively easy victory. De Voest is a long shot. Moreover, going against De Voest is the fact that he did not participate in any of the US Open series events, and prior to arriving on the big stage at the US Open, the last tournament he played in was a challenger event in July – the Vancouver Open.

Tennis : – Isner in straight sets.

Tennis Prediction: – This is perhaps the best match in this quarter. As the line indicates, Andreev and Lopez are evenly matched up, with Lopez holding the slightest of advantages. Lopez is an exceptionally good player and his game suits the faster paced hard courts. (Brief flashes of brilliant play from Lopez on a fast surface were witnessed at the 2007 Wimbledon championships.)

Further adding value to No.60 Lopez is the fact that he holds a 2-0 lifetime record over Andreev. While both matches were played on clay, the fact that he has beaten him in the past strengthens his odds.

No. 39 Andreev at -110 is a good bet. He is a player to contend with. His serve is powerful and his forehand is his best shot. He has an uncanny ability to place the ball at will. In the one Pilot Penn tennis championships – he advanced into the quarterfinal round, where he lost in a marathon three set match by a mere handful of points to Ivo Karlovic 7-6(10) 4-6 6-7(1). Take the oddsmakers bait.

Tennis Free Picks: – Andreev in four sets.

Tennis Prediction: – Without question, the sure play in this match is Gasquet at -800. [WC] Donald Young, an emerging player, has yet to reach the maturation necessary to upset a Top 20 player on a big stage like the US Open. At best, Young can hope to end his US campaign with respect – by playing a good match and not getting completely schooled.

Tennis Free Picks: – Gasquet in straight sets.

Federer might be winning everything except clay these days, but with online sports betting in the tennis lines, odds and props to earn cold, hard cash!
