Our Zizou Bergs vs Ben Shelton Prediction
The Difference Maker: Shelton is the defending champion of this tournament, and he proved just that by overcoming a decent player like Brooksby in the second round. Shelton recorded only three aces in that match, yet he managed to dictate the flow with his return game.
What to Expect: Shelton should improve on his serve and make it a more lethal weapon against Bergs. Shelton defeated Bergs on clay two years ago, but he should deal more damage on the hard court, where he is winning 76.4 percent of his first balls and averaging 11.7 aces per match.
Shelton is already a decent option at -140 to cover -2.5 games, but he’s more profitable at +110 to cover a manageable -3.5 games in the alternative spread market.
Fearless Forecast: Shelton wins 6-3, 7-6
