Nicolas Jarry vs Alibek Kachmazov picks

Ahead of this ATP match-up between a proven performer and an up-and-comer, only one bet appeals looking at the early lines:

Nicolas Jarry to Win

Sure, the Chilean competitor is the favorite here and he’s quite a strong one, but I really would argue that he should be even stronger in the early market.

I won’t try and pretend that Kachmazov is a complete no-hoper and the youngster has performed very well in Chengdu so far, but this is by far his toughest test and I’m just not sure that we’ve seen enough from the young Russian to suggest that it’s a test he can pass.

Kachmazov is not really used to coming up against players of Jarry’s level and let’s face it, Jarry is close to being over of the very top players on the ATP.

Jarry hasn’t exactly been in amazing hard-court form of late, but he got the job done in the last round, beating a player ranked much higher than Kachmazov, while we saw that he can be a serious competitor on this surface when beating the likes of Casper Ruud and James Draper earlier in the season.

Moreover, the man from Chile enjoyed playing in this part of the world last season, winning five out of seven matches in China, beating some much better players than Kachmazov.

Ultimately, the Chilean is expected to have too much in the locker for his opponent here and the early odds really could reflect that a bit more accurately, so betting on Jarry to win at the early odds offers a smidgen of value for money.
