Berdych vs Monfils Betting: Tomas Berdych can clinch the title with another strong performance
The final match of the ATP tournament in Montpellier will see the top two seeds in action and it will certainly be a very entertaining encounter. However, only one player can walk aways as the winner and I simply cannot see past Tomas Berdych for a number of reasons.
First of all, he has been absolutely brilliant throughout the entire tournament. Admittedly, Florent Serra and Nicolas Mahut were not the strongest opponents around, but Philipp Kohlschreiber is always tough to beat and the Czech crushed him with something to spare. He is clearly enjoying the conditions and his current form is simply outstanding. Even Rafael Nadal had serious problems against him in the Australian Open and his game has not declined since that defeat.
Meanwhile, Gael Monfils produced a shocking performance against Gilles Simon and he probably should have lost against him in all honesty. A similar effort here will see him going down in no time, as Berdych is not in the mood to mess around. Monfils will get something off his serve, but he is bound to produce a poor game or two somewhere and that alone can easily lose him the match. He is also hardly clinical in this kind of matches - just remember the Monfils-Tsonga final from the beginning of the year, where he simply gifted the victory to his opponent from a winning position.
Berdych is priced around 1.60 for the outright victory and that seems like a decent bet on its own, but I am going to take a bigger risk here. The Czech has won all his matches in straight sets so far and I can see a repeat of that here. At 2.38, I am going to have a small play.
