US Open ATP Betting Tips: Alex De Minaur vs Dominic Thiem

Westley Ott

OddsDigger's Tips

The "Big Five" have dominated the ATP Tour in the last years. Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, and Stan Wawrinka took almost every major title among themselves. At the last Grand Slam tournament 2017, only two of these top five players are represented. This results in many new opportunities at the US Open. Austrian Dominic Thiem who is aiming for top 5 will meet the young Australian Alex de Minaur in the first round and the US open ATP odds are in his favour! Let's see our tennis predictions and picks.

US Open Betting Preview

Dominic Thiem now belongs to the absolute world class and is placed in Flushing Meadows as the sixth seed. The 24-year-old can not complain about the draw. Although he is in the "Federer quarter", with de Minaur it is a quite pleasant first-round lot.

Dominic Thiem comes into the 2017 US Open match against Alex de Minaur looking to progress beyond the fourth round of the competition for the first time. In two of the last three editions, the 23-year-old has been knocked out in the fourth round. Yet, this match promises to provide a great path to the second round for the world number 8, according to the US Open predictions.

Alex de Minaur - Stats & Current Form

De Minaur comes into the event as the 230th ranked player in the world. The Australian is not considered to be one of the favourites by the US Open betting predictions available for the game. The Australian comes on the back of a defeat against Kevin King in the Winston-Salem masters. He even failed to get past the qualifying stages of the 2017 Wimbledon. The last Australian Open happens to be one of his most successful outings in the Grand Slam after he managed to reach the R64 round.

Dominic Thiem - Stats & Current Form

US Open men predictions have a lot of faith in Thiem reaching the latter stages of the competition, as he comes into the event in a reasonable form. Ranked 8th in the world, the Austria born tennis star managed to get knocked out in the quarter-finals at the Cincinnati Masters by David Ferrer. However, he comes on the back of a positive Wimbledon 2017 where he reached the fourth round – and was beaten by Tomas Berdych. This strong performance is a major reason behind Thiem being the overwhelming favourite in terms of US Open ATP odds.

US Open Betting Tips

Alex de Minaur +9.5 @ 8/11 Betway

This will be the first meeting between the duo. Even though de Minaur is available at an extremely attractive price for a victory with Betway, the 18-year-old is not a great pick since he has struggled against the top opponents. Failure to go past the qualifiers at Wimbledon was a sign of those struggles. The US Open betting odds also reflect this, as they go rather short on a victory for Thiem. The recent form, higher rankings, coupled with the head-to-head records are reasons to go with a straight win for Thiem, but the odds won't offer much returns, therefore, we went for another market - Games Handicap. Our pick is Alex de Minaur +9.5 @ 8/11 with Betway. They offer a 100% Match Bonus and the best odds on tennis today.

Total Sets: Under 3.5 @ 2/7 10Bet

Speaking of US Open ATP betting tips, we would also recommend going with the game producing under 3.5 sets. Out of the last 13 matches of de Minaur, only three have witnessed games with more than three sets. Only two of the last 28 matches for Thiem have witnessed more than three sets. As a result, a great pick would be to back this game to produce under 3.5 sets @ 2/7 with 10Bet. This is a better pick for low riskers.
