At the ATP Finals on Sunday, Ben Shelton will be up against Arthur Fils. This is a top-ten affair between the world number four and the world number seven. Shelton arrives off the back of reaching the final of the Paris Masters, which should mean that the American is feeling confident. Somewhat disappointingly, Fils, on home soil, went out in the second round in the French capital and is now looking to improve.
On the face of it, odds of -175 may seem a little skinny, but if we're really honest, Ben Shelton could be an even stronger favorite here. He has a promising record against Arthur Fils, while of the two players, he is the one who has shown the stronger form of late. Sure, the world number four lost last time out, but that defeat was against the higher-ranked Carlos Alcaraz. Against lower-ranked players, even very good ones, the American has not put a foot wrong for a while.

Our Ben Shelton vs Arthur Fils Prediction
There was a big huge difference between the level of form shown by these two players at the recently concluded Paris Masters, which is far from easy to ignore. In the French capital, Fils performed poorly, exiting at the second-round stage against Taylor Fritz. In contrast, Shelton was in hot form, reaching the final, where he lost to Carlos Alcaraz.
If we consider this difference in form shown in Paris with the fact that Shelton won in straight sets when the pair last met, then it becomes relatively easy to conclude that odds of -175 are on the generous side. Value bettors should be on the world number four to get it done at anything bigger than -200.
