We've reached the quarter finals of the ATP event in Montreal, where Jakub Mensik and Ben Shelton will do business. Both players arrive in hot form, with both having won each of their first three matches at this event in straight sets. Therefore, we should see two very confident players take to the court, which should make for an entertaining all-top-20 clash.
Based on the early lines, a bet on 'Over 2.5 Sets' catches the eye. Neither player looks ready to give this one up easily, while the pair also have a record of playing matches that enter a third set on this surface. When they last met on a hard court, back in 2025, they played three sets, with Mensik coming out on top, Prior to that, in 2024, they shared three sets with Shelton coming out on top. Don't be surprised if three sets are played here.
