The Madrid Open is well underway and with the likes of Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer returning to action in the Spanish capital, preparations for the French Open at the end of the month look well underway. Rafael Nadal too is chasing his 6th Madrid title whilst the likes of Dominic Thiem and Stefanos Tsitsipas will be looking to continue their impressive starts to 2019. Here are our top Madrid Open Men’s Quarter betting tips.
World number 1 Novak Djokovic is the top seed here in Madrid and he’ll be looking to find some form on clay following a disappointing showing at the Monte Carlo Masters. He tends to save his very best tennis for the Grand Slams but does need to show some form and looks a good bet at 2/5 with Ladbrokes to reach the last 4 here.
Marin Cilic is an experienced campaigner on the ATP Tour but has never produced his very best tennis on clay. He has struggled for form in recent weeks and needs a boost but looks a little under-priced at 4/1 with Unibet to reach a much needed semi-final this week.
Argentine Juan Martin del Potro has been side lined through injury for the majority of this season but will be looking to go two better than his semi-final appearance at the French Open last year. He is always capable of producing results and with the draw being so open, it would be naïve to rule him out at 6/1 with William Hill.
Clay court specialist Diego Schwartzmann has not enjoyed his best year on tour but he seems to be relishing a return to the ‘dirt’. He is always a fascinating player to watch and his variety could cause his opponents problems and the Argentine is 11/1 with 888sport to reach the last 4 in Madrid.
