Giulio Zeppieri and Learner Tien open the show in the RO16, and it's anybody's game despite what the betting odds suggest. See our best pick in this Giulio Zeppieri vs Learner Tien match prediction.

If you ask us, the better play here is betting on the total sets, and two is our magic number. The books say Tien will likely win, but Zeppieri, who has now won nine of his last ten games, just cannot be ruled out. Now, what's been consistent on both sides are straight-set games.

Of Zeppieri’s last 11 games, nine finished in straight sets, and one was a retired game at 1-0. It's even more glaring for Tien, as 21 of his last 22 games have finished in straight sets. If we're looking at hardcourt games only, ten of Tien’s last 11 also finished in straight sets. Likewise, 13 of Zeppieri's last 18 on this surface have ended in straight sets.

For Zeppieri, the trend continued up until his most recent game, where he beat Fajing Sun 2-0. Although Tien went down to the wire in his 2-1 RO32 victory over Mariano Navone, his prior 17 singles ended in straight sets.
