My tip for today should be the safest match I could get on ATP. Gasquet played brilliant in the past week, winning against Matosevic, De Schepper and Almagro- without losing any set during. On the other hand GGL is in his best form for years now. He did manage to win the Bucharest title last week after astonishing performances (like defeating Baggy, Rosol, Monfils and Vesely). In Estoril (more than 3000km away) he started to play on tuesday and managed to win against Carballes, Anderson and Coric- losing set only to Anderson. He seems not to be bothered by the many matches played in the past two week, neither by the long journey he had to make from Bucharest to Estoril. The main reason why I am backing this is the deference between the value of this two guys. Gasquet is former top 10 player and now on 28th spot, while GGL is now 31 (at his peak form), but was former 23th. I think that the odds are fair and I consider the match having little value- that nevertheless I consider it the banker for today. Richie showed great class yesterday when defeating Almagro in straight with some consistent tennis. I think this consistency might damage GGL and his game.
