Zverev vs. Federer
Alexander Zverev dream run continues in Montreal. Regardless of this Sunday’s outcome, the 20-year-old German already secured his career-high ranking next week with an unprecedented appearance in the top 7. Adding to this, Zverev is just one win away from becoming the first player outside the ‘big four’ to win two ATP World Tour Masters 1000 titles in the same year since David Nalbandian in 2007.
The 19-time Grand Slam champion – Roger Federer – continues his phenomenal campaign in 2017. In addition to his incredible 35 – 2 record this season, the Swiss maestro won all his previous 16 matches this year on Masters 1000 events. Taking a look now at Roger’s campaign in Montreal, the two-time Rogers Cup champion reaches this stage of the competition after a 6 – 4 7 – 6 win over Robin Haase in the semi-finals.
The bookmakers expect a straightforward win from Roger with Coral offering 33/100 for his victory while Zverev is available at 5/2 at William Hill. Even though we agree with Federer’s favouritism, it’s hard to find any value on his current odds. On the other hand, Pinnacle offers a very interesting price for Alexander to win just one set on this match. That said, our advice is for you to place a bet on Zverev’s +1.5 Set Handicap at 99/100 at Pinnacle as the best betting approach for this final.
