ATP Masters 1000 Miami 1/64-Finals
Muller – Sakamoto: 19.03.2025 20:30 CEST
H2H: first meeting
Alexandre Muller has lost three of his last five matches. Last week in Cap Cana, Muller lost in three tight sets to Kovacevic in the semifinals of a Challenger tournament. The Frenchman also lost against Kwon last season in Miami in the opening round.
Rei Sakamoto has won four of his last five matches. He is one of the most considerable Japanese talents. This week in Miami, Sakamoto qualified for the main draw tournament. It is his debut campaign in Miami.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Muller is the slight favorite in this matchup, and we agree. He had a solid run last week in Cap Cana. At the beginning of the season, Muller won his maiden ATP title in Hong Kong. On the other hand, Sakamoto has no experience playing at the highest level.
That being said, Muller winning in straight sets is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Alexandre Muller winning 2-0 @2.10 @bet365
Spizzirri – Harris: 20.03.2025 00:00 CEST
H2H: first meeting
Eliot Spizzirri has won three of his last five matches. Last week in Phoenix, he lost in the second round against Cobolli. This will be his debut campaign in the main draw tournament in Miami. Last season, he failed to qualify for the main draw tournament.
Billy Harris has lost three of his last five matches. This week in Miami, Harris qualified for the main draw tournament. In the final qualifying round, Harris upset Gaston in straight sets. He currently enjoys his debut campaign in Miami.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Harris is the underdog in this matchup, but we disagree. He played his best tennis this week in the qualifying tournament. On the other hand, Spizzirri never succeeded at the highest level. We expect Harris to handle the pressure better and win this match.
That being said, Harris winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Billy Harris winning @2.38 @bet365
Bonzi – Fearnley: 20.03.2025 Time TBA
H2H: first meeting
Benjamin Bonzi has lost four of his last five matches. Last week in Cap Cana, he lost in straight sets in the second round against Dzumhur. This is his second appearance in Miami. In his debut campaign in 2022, he lost in the opening round against Paul.
Jacob Fearnley has won three of his last five matches. This week in Miami, Fearnley qualified for the main draw tournament by easily winning both qualifying matches in straight sets. It is his debut campaign in Miami.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Fearnley is the slight favorite in this matchup. but we disagree. Bonzi is in bad form but still a prominent top 70 player. He is also a more experienced player than Fearnley. We expect Bonzi to keep this match tight.
That being said, Bonzi covering the games handicap is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Benjamin Bonzi +3.5 games handicap @1.75
