All times are UK/Irish and are subject to change, and all times are in 24hr format e.g., 01.00 = 1am and 16:00 = 4pm:

PLEASE NOTE, IF THERE ARE LIQUIDITY ISSUES, ALWAYS KEEP THE STAKES LOW

ATP WORLD TOUR FINALS:

1. 14:00 – Nishikori v Raonic

Considering the fact that Nishi did beat Murray in 2 sets, I feel he should be backed here. Moreover, it’s worth noting that he also leads the Canadian 4-1 on Head to Head stats which is relevant as Raonic has yet to beat him on a hard court!

Overall, current form and stats point to the fact that Kei is the man to back here!

Back Kei Nishikori @1.63, lay @1.3

2. 20:00 – Federer v Murray

Only two players have served consistently so far in London.

One, of course, is Djokovic and the other, Roger Federer. The rest have all looked sloppy on serves. Murray, even though he beat Raonic in his last match, didn’t look that convincing for me in his service games. Roger, on the other hand, used his kick-serves pretty well and made the balls much harder to return. It’s no surprise that these courts are more suited to the Swiss who have had success in London in the past years. Overall I think Roger is the right bet here, so go for him to start well.

There is indeed a good chance this could turn out to be a thriller of a match. Consider laying the 1st set winner.

Back Roger @1.5, lay @1.2

Good luck!
