Men’s Australian Open Quarterfinals Betting Odds

The first men’s single match late Tuesday night in American time features two Russians who know each other quite well. No. 4 ranked Daniil Medvedev faces No. 8 Andrey Rublev in a match of two strong young players who have become very popular among fans of the new generation of tennis.

Medvedev comes in as the favorite and is looking to get past the quarterfinals in the AO for the first time in his career. His furthest performance in a grand slam was reaching the finals of the 2019 US Open, where he defeated Rublev along the way. Medvedev leads the all-time series 3-0.

Late night in the US, the young Greek sensation Stefanos Tsitsipas will attempt to take down the Spanish legend Rafael Nadal as a tennis betting underdog.

While Nadal hasn’t had tremendous success in Melbourne (only one AO win in 2009), he is still the second-ranked player in the world and will be quite the test for the lanky Grecian.

Nadal leads the all-time head-to-head 6-1 over Tsitsipas, with the only loss coming at the 2019 ATP Masters in Spain. Despite having 12 years on Nadal in terms of youth, it will take a massive effort for Tsitsipas to take down the legendary Spaniard.

Woman’s Australian Open Quarterfinals Betting Odds

Over to the women, where many familiar faces are still alive in Melbourne. Australian native Ashleigh Barty has done well to advance thus far in her return to grand slam tennis.

She enters her match against Karolina Muchova as a heavy favorite even without the cheers of her local faithful to fill the arena. The pair have played once before with Barty emerging as the winner.

The state of Victoria in Australia remains in temporary lockdown, but fans are hoping to be able to return to the arena by the end of the week.

The other quarters match on Tuesday features two Americans in Jen Brady and Jessica Pegula. Brady is the favorite despite Pegula owning the sole victory in their all-time series.

Brady is looking to make her first grand slam semifinals since 2019 and is still searching for her maiden win in slam tournaments.
