Analysis that actually matters.
Stop guessing and start winning.
Auger-Aliassime vs Lehecka Recap: Auger-Aliassime wins 6-3, 7-6 (2)
Top-seeded Felix Auger-Aliassime extended his hot streak by beating eighth-seeded Jiri Lehecka in the Dubai quarterfinals. The Canadian posted a 16-7 edge in aces, and Lehecka never broke serve in the match.
The second set tightened into a tiebreak, and Auger-Aliassime separated cleanly there to close it in two. Next up is third-seeded Daniil Medvedev, so this becomes a form-meets-form matchup with a clear serve profile on one side.
Medvedev vs Brooksby Recap: Medvedev wins 6-2, 6-1
Medvedev rolled past Jenson Brooksby in the Dubai quarterfinals. The scoreline tells you it was never really in doubt.
From a betting lens, the key piece is how little stress Medvedev took on to get through. That kind of efficient win matters when the next round is against an opponent who has been piling up victories.
Rublev vs Rinderknech Recap: Rublev wins 6-2, 6-4
Fifth-seeded Andrey Rublev handled Arthur Rinderknech in straight sets. It was a clean progression into the semifinal.
Rublev will face Tallon Griekspoor, who advanced by ousting Jakub Mensik 6-3, 3-6, 6-2. That sets up a contrast between a straight-sets path and a three-set rebound.
Baez vs Garin Recap: Baez wins 7-6 (2), 1-6, 7-5
Sebastian Baez, a three-time finalist at Santiago, survived Cristian Garin in a three-set quarterfinal. Baez saved seven of eight break points, which was the difference when pressure spikes hit.
It wasn’t linear, the second set slipped away, but Baez recovered to close the third 7-5. That’s a useful note for bettors who track mental response after a lopsided set.
Cerundolo vs Moller Recap: Cerundolo wins 6-2, 6-2
Top-seeded Francisco Cerundolo dismissed Elmer Moller in straight sets. It was one of the cleaner results on the Santiago slate.
For bettors, straight-sets efficiency like that often matters more than style. Less time on court tends to keep the next match setup simpler.
Tabilo vs Tirante Recap: Tabilo wins 4-6, 6-3, 6-3
Alejandro Tabilo dropped the first set, then turned the match around to beat Thiago Agustin Tirante. The key was the mid-match stabilization after falling behind.
Comebacks like this are often where live-betting lessons show up, but without adding numbers, the simple takeaway is the match didn’t end after set one.
Nava vs Vallejo Recap: Nava wins 7-5, 6-3
Emilio Nava advanced past Adolfo Daniel Vallejo in straight sets. The first set was tight, but Nava kept it from turning into a three-set grind.
That kind of two-set closeout, especially after a 7-5 opener, is usually a signal of steady end-of-set execution.
Cobolli vs Wu Recap: Cobolli wins 7-6 (4), 6-1
Flavio Cobolli survived early danger and then ran away with it. He shook off two set points in the opener and finished a perfect 8-for-8 saving break points, including two in the final game.
Once he banked the first set, the second turned one-way. From a betting angle, that’s the profile of a match where the first-set swing mattered more than anything afterward.
