Best French Open Tennis Betting Tips Today: Rafael Nadal v Diego Schwartzman
French Open Tennis betting tips today start with a look at the King of Clay himself, Rafa Nadal.
Nadal looks to be marching towards potentially another French Open title in his remarkable career.
The Spaniard has not dropped a set so far in the competition and it’s all been a little bit easy for him.
He quickly breezed past Jannik Sinner in the fourth round, not letting a single game go in the third set as he wrapped up a straight-sets win.
We don’t expect him to come up short against Diego Schwartzman in the quarter-final on Wednesday.
The Argentine hasn’t dropped a set either and has been ticking along nicely.
But the 10th seed hasn’t met a seeded player yet.
What does the head to head say about the chances of Schwartzman producing an upset?
Well not too much as he is W1 L10 from eleven previous meetings with Nadal.
Schwartzman’s lone win happened in Rome last year before Nadal took a semi-final win in straight sets against him at Roland Garros.
That’s two wins from two for Nadal over Schwartzman at the French Open.
Nadal 3-0 set betting at 1/2

French Open Tennis Betting Picks Today: Novak Djokovic v Matteo Berrettini
It’s Novak Djokovic up next in French Open Tennis betting for today.
The Serbian great had a massive scare in the fourth round as he found himself two sets down.
But then he found an untouchable gear. Djokovic rattled off the next three sets, dropping just one game in the process.
It was just a relentless turnaround in form from him against youngster Lorenzo Musetti.
Maybe he wasn’t quite prepared for what was coming at him across the net.
But that will have been a massive wake up call for the top seed, who faces another Italian, Matteo Berrettini in the quarters.
This will be just the second meeting between the two players, with Djokovic earning a victory indoors over Berrettini at the 2019 ATP Finals.
This has been a very good season by Berrettini having collected a title and posting a hugely positive 18/5 season record ahead of the French Open.
He’s ranked 9th in the world.
But we can only think that Djokovic’s scare in the fourth round will have fired him up more.
Djokovic -6.5 games handicap at 5/6

French Open Tennis Betting Tips for Today: Iga Swiatek v Maria Sakkari
This is another fantastic quarter-final to look forward to on Wednesday in today’s French Open Tennis betting tips.
Maria Sakkari got the better of, and convincingly so, Sofia Kenin in the fourth round.
The Greek star looks bang on top of her game at the moment and she has powered her way through this tournament.
The one dropped set that she has let get away, was on a tiebreak in the third round against Elise Mertens.
But Sakkari responded by rushing through the deciding set to get through to her first quarter-final at the French Open.
Next up for her is a duel for a place in the semi-finals against the reigning French Open champion Iga Swiatek.
The two have never met before.
Both of them have been running in top form this season without question
Iga Swiatek is the red-hot favourite for this quarter-final clash in tennis betting.
She hasn’t dropped a set, running completely untroubled through to this stage in Paris.
Impressively the 20 year old has shown no nerves about this being a Grand Slam title defence.
However, Swiatek has not been tested against a seeded player, whereas Sakkari has had two tough matches against top-twenty players.
Is that extra competitive edge going to help the Greek player? These are both massively strong and aggressive players.
We think Swiatek just gets it after her run to the title in Rome ahead of the French Open, knocking out some big names along the way.
That franked her form on the clay. We think her opponent pinches a set however because Sakkari is in top form.
Iga Swiatek 2-1 set betting 11/4
