Jürgen Melzer is on his farewell tour at the Erste Bank Open in Vienna and now meets Kevin Anderson. Betting provider Interwetten presents you the “Match of the day” from the Vienna Stadthalle.
Is it the last act in the individual career of Jürgen Melzer? Wait and see! The 37-year-old is on his farewell tour at the Erste Bank Open in Vienna and will retire after his home tournament.
This was already as good as sealed with the draw of the first round against Milos Raonic, but the local hero delivered a great performance and threw the number 22 of the world with 7:6 (6) and 7:5 out of the tournament. Retirement postponed, once again Melzer can be celebrated by the local fans in the Vienna Stadthalle.
Now it goes against Kevin Anderson – the tasks do not become easier for the Wildcard owner thus. Again Melzer has an opponent in front of his chest, who serves very well and acts with hard basic strokes. But Anderson moves better than Raonic and will cause Melzer more problems.
You already know which player will win the tournament in Vienna? Then place your bet here in the Interwetten-Favoritencheck for the Erste Bank Open and find out about the title favorites!
Anderson must not afford slips in the final phase of the season. At the moment the South African is in seventh place in the Race to London and wants to make his first participation in the ATP finals clear. So Melzer can’t expect a merciful Anderson.
Betting provider Interwetten sees Anderson as the clear favourite in the “Match of the day” and sends the service giant into the race with a 1.20 odds. Melzer – clear underdog – is attributed a victory rate of 4.0 and can play free.
One thing is for sure: The atmosphere in the Vienna Stadthalle will of course be per Melzer and carry the 37-year-old through the game.
