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

WTA ROME:

1. 12:30 – Safarova v Schiavone

While Safarova has caught some form in recent weeks, she has lost both head to head matches on Clay against Schiavone who is playing at home. Also worth noting that Schia has performed very well on Clay this year winning the tourney at Rio, Brazil back in February.

With crowd support behind the former French Open champ, I suggest laying Safa at the start..

—> Lay Safa @1.4, Back @1.9

2. 14:00 – Errani v Watson –> HOT TIP: NO STOP LOSS RECOMMENDED

Watson did quite well in getting past Ana Konjuh in the last round. But unfortunately for the Brit, Errani is playing on her favourite surface at home. This is going to be a big challenge for the Brit I feel.

—> Back Errani @1.45, Lay @1.14

ATP ROME:

3. 18:00 – Zverev v Dimitrov

Dimitrov’s form has been quite on and off on Clay while Zverev has good wins recently at Munich over players like David Goffin. With a decent serve in his arsenal which could prove very effective on Clay, I suggest siding with Zverev at the beginning.

—> Lay Dimitrov @1.95, Back @3
