Betting on the Marco Cecchinato (+650)

Cecchinato does not need you to know who he is in order for him to advance this far in the tournament. In his latest conquest, the 25-year-old Cecchinato sent David Goffin crashing out of the competition in the fourth round with a four-set 7-5, 4-6, 6-0, 6-3 victory. Cecchinato is definitely on a roll and obviously is now being buoyed up by an extremely high level of momentum, especially after eliminating two-straight top-10 seeds. Prior to taking down Goffin, Cecchinato also tossed Pablo Carreno Busta out of the tournament with a 2-6, 7-6 (7-5), 6-3, 6-1 in the third round. Against Goffin, had eight aces compared to just three by Goffin. Cecchinato also put 68 percent of his first serves in while winning 72 percent of first-serve points. He also scored off of six of 18 break opportunities. This is the first time Cecchinato has moved out of the first round of a Grand Slam event.

Betting on the Novak Djokovic (-1000)

Djokovic just keeps on rolling. The 31-year-old Serbian is flashing a seriously sound form in Roland Garros, and he’ll have to continue wielding it in addition to his already imposing image across the court when he takes on Cecchinato. Djokovic earned a slot in the quarterfinals following his annihilation of Fernando Verdasco in the fourth round, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. Djokovic, who won the French Open in 2016, put 72 percent of his first serves in play and won 62 percent of those points. Moreover, Djokovic converted five of his 10 break chances, while winning 54 percent of return points. The former world No. 1 slid down to No. 22 after taking time off to recover an elbow injury, but he’s clearly showing he’s a lot better than what his rankings suggest. The 12-time Grand Slam winner has won nine of his previous 11 sets.
