Matteo Berrettini vs. Roger Federer: Preview and betting tips

The eighth round of the French Open will offer a very interesting duel between two representatives of the world’s elite ten. Matteo Berrettini will challenge thirty-nine-year-old Roger Federer. How will the match play out?

Matteo Berrettini is currently ninth in the ATP rankings with 3,958 points. His best result at the French Open is the third round in 2018 and 2020.

So, the 25-year-old Italian has already improved his career best. He took on Taro Daniel to start, after which came victories against Federico Coria and Soonwoo Kwon. But now he has a really tough nut to crack.

On Monday, he will face Roger Federer, who won the French Open in 2009. He is currently eighth in the ATP rankings with 5,605 points.

In the first round of the French Open, the thirty-nine-year-old Swiss tennis player took on Denis Istomin. Federer also managed the duels with Marin Cilic and Dominic Koepfer, although he lost one set in both.

Therefore, I recommend a bet on Roger Federer to win at least two sets in the match. After all, clay is not the favourite surface of Berrettini, who also does not have the experience of his upcoming opponent.

However, we can look forward to a very interesting match that might not end after three sets. That’s why we offer odds of 1.73 to see at least 37 games.

Update: Roger Federer has withdrawn from the tournament
