Great were the concerns of British fans in the run-up to this year's Wimbledon tournament and Wimbledon tips mentioned this all over the place. Andy Murray travelled to the capital and it was not clear in what condition he was. Murray complained about hip problems and won not a single preparatory match on grass, affecting all Wimbledon men’s odds. But who is Fabio Fognini? Is he a danger for Murray? Tennis betting tips are not backing him much.

Wimbledon Predictions: Andy Murray vs. Fabio Fognini - July 7

Both against Alexander Bublik and Dustin Brown, the champion did not lose a set and his performance against the German-Jamaican was impressive. The Briton always had the better answer and the upper hand in a powerful manner, turning his Wimbledon men’s singles odds down. He did not get involved with the weird counter-attacks of the opponent and was perfectly adjusted to the unconventional playing style of his opponent. So, the fun finished after only one and a half set for the audience and there should be no more questions regarding the health of the Scotsman.

Andy Murray - Stats & Current Form

Current ATP Ranking: 1

Andy Murray was able to celebrate some of the greatest triumphs of his career on the grass of London, at times beating all Wimbledon men's betting odds. He won the Olympic gold for the first time in 2012 and a year later, he won the Wimbledon tournament as the first ever Briton since Fred Perry. Last year, he was on the podium as well and will be the title defending champion this season. The success in 2016 was the cornerstone for his leap to the top rank in the ATP, which he still holds today. We have already addressed the somewhat problematic preparation in the latest Wimbledon men's betting tips here at OddsDigger. At the London Queens Club, he wanted to find his rhythm as usual, but this did not work at all.

Fabio Fognini - Stats & Current Form

Current ATP ranking: 29

In the performances against Benoit Paire and Bernard Tomic lately, Italian Fabio Fognini seemed almost like a full pro. In fact, his attitude has changed a bit. The 30-year-old has gained experience and is able to focus on his matches better. This can be seen in all Wimbledon men's betting tips. The newly won ambition was also seen in his two previous matches. After the early break at the French Open (second round against Stan Wawrinka), he wants to collect World Rally Points in London for Grand Slams again. Ranked 29, he is currently close to the border of the big guys.

Andy Murray vs Fabio Fognini Predictions

The direct comparison is somewhat surprisingly balanced, Fognini even has slight advantages and this is obvious in the Wimbledon men's betting odds. In total, both players were able to win three duels, with the Italian team leading 8-6.

The question marks about the health of the World's No.1 have disappeared. The questions about his form should also be unnecessary at least since the match against Brown. So, what can Andy Murray expect? A weak Fabio Fognini perhaps? We do not really believe it. The Italian is always good in such big matches and often calls his highest level, but Murray still boasts better figures when it comes to statistics and Wimbledon odds back him.
