There's a very interesting match due to take place at the ATP event in s-Hertogenbosch on Tuesday, when teenager Thijs Boogaard takes on the more established Yibing Wu. On paper, this is a match that the Chinese player shoud win based on experience alone, and the early betting would confirm that. However, he's up against a promising youngster who has nothing to lose, a youngster who has some decent form of grass, and a youngster who will have the backing of a home crowd.
Moreover, Wu has a shocking recent record on grass, so his victory here looks a little less likely than the early odds would suggest. After all, we're talking about a player who has fallen at the first-round hurdle in each of his last five grass-court tournament, so it's worth betting that, if nothing else, he fails to make light work of this assignment.

Our Thijs Boogaard vs Yibing Wu Prediction
Yibing Wu may be ranked considerably above Thijs Boogaard, but let's face it, the Chinese player is far from consistent and it's not like he's a top-100 player. Wu also struggled massively when we last saw him on grass, with him coming into this match off the back five straight first-round exits at grass-court tournaments.
If the young Dutch player wanted a decent first-round opening, then this is it. In front of what should be plenty of home support, the man who has won three of his last four grass-court matches could easily cause a bit of an upset, and with the home crowd behind him, he's worth betting on to, at the very least, avoid a straight-set defeat.
