Best Wimbledon Bets Today (Swiatek, Kyrgios Set To Advance)
The Round of 16 is just a few matches away, but we still have some great matches leading up to it. The No. 1 seed on the women's side is stepping back onto the court, and the men's side has one of the biggest threats to Novak Djokovic on the grass.
Here are Donnavan Smoot's and Reed Wallach's best bets for Saturday's slate of tennis locked and loaded. Let's get into the picks.
All odds listed are via WynnBET.
Alize Cornet vs. Iga Swiatek Prediction and Pick
Swiatek got pushed to a third set in her second round match, but was able to win it fairly easily. With a 37-match winning streak still alive, I think that scare will be enough to refocus her coming into this match.
This is the first time these two will play against each other, and I think Swiatek will make quick work of Cornet. Swiatek is winning over 50% of her return games and converting on over 53% of potential break points. If Cornet isn’t able to hold serve, it will be a short day for her as Swiatek will win in straight sets. – Donnavan Smoot
Lean: OVER 19.5 Games (-115)

Stefanos Tsitsipas vs. Nick Kyrgios Prediction and Pick
The Greek star is 8-2 on grass this season, but he fell to his Australian counterpart a few weeks back in a competitive three set match. Kyrgios feasted off of Tsitsipas second serve in that match, converting 58% of those points.
We saw the upside of the World No. 40 earlier this week, when he disposed of Filip Krajonovic in less than 90 minutes en route to this match. He won 93% of his first serve points. Tsitsipas is more dangerous on this surface, but Kyrgios' ability to win off his first serve is going to be the difference.
While Tsitsipas brings the pedigree into this match, I'm going to side with Kyrgios to complete one of the biggest wins of his career. – Reed Wallach
PICK: Kyrgios ML -135
