During the early hours of Thursday morning for those in the US, at the ATP event in Auckland, New Zealand, there's match between Jakub Mensik and Nunon Borges, and it's a very interesting match. The Czech player arrives here as the sizable favorite, though I'm not quite sure that's right. In fact, Mensik's strong favoritism is likely an overreaction to that fact that he beat Ben Shelton to get here, but that was a tough match, one that toook a big effort, while Nuno Borges is not an easy player to face, so there may just be some value to be had by betting on the Portuguese player to win.

Our Jakub Mensik vs Nuno Borges Prediction

Sure, Jakub Mensik's win against Ben Shelton shouldn't be ignored, but if we take everything into consideration, Nuno Borges really does look a little generously priced at odds of +175. The Portuguese player has already defeated two very good players in Auckland, while he has the experience of beating Mensik at the US Open to draw upon, so I do think he deserves more respect. On that basis, a bet on Borges to come out on top is one that offers value for money. Our Pick: Nuno Borges to Win.
