Another tournament has nearly come and gone. We've reached the final of the ATP event in Houston, and it's Roman Andres Burruchaga vs Tommy Paul. The American managed to justify strong favoritism against Frances Tiafoe last time out, though that victory was anything but easy for the world number 21, who probably comes into this final feeling less than entirely fresh after that semi final, which lasted nearly three hours. 

In contrast, Paul's Argentine enemy got the job done in one hour and three minutes in his semi-final, and this is not something to ignore. As a result, Roman Andres Burruchaga surely enters this huge game with much more in his locker in terms of fitness and energy, and if we combine this with the fact that he's been playing really well in general, then it's far from difficult to see him making life hard for his higher-ranked opponent.

Roman Andres Burruchaga - Tommy Paul Key Points

  1. Roman Andres Burruchaga won his semi-final in straight sets and probably conserved more energy than his opponent.
  2. Tommy Paul endured a very energy-sapping three-set semi against Frances Tiafoe.
  3. Roman Andres Burruchaga has lost none of his recent matches against higher-ranked players in straight sets.
  4. Tommy Paul has only won one out of three matches in straight sets at this event so far.

Our Roman Andres Burruchaga vs Tommy Paul Prediction

At odds of -137, I cannot resist betting on Roman Andres Burruchaga to, at the very least, prevent Tommy Paul from winning this final in straight sets. The Argentine has looked at home on the Houston clay over the last week, while he probably saved more energy than his American opponent during the semi-finals, winning in straight sets. 

Paul had to really fight to get beyond Frances Tiafoe, and while he should now be confident of going all the way, will he have enough left in the tank to make light work of beating a very strong clay-court player? At odds of -137, I'm willing to bet that he won't. 

Our Roman Andres Burruchaga vs Tommy Paul Pick: Roman Andres Burruchaga +1.5 Set Handicap.
