Janko Tipsarevic takes on Dmitry Tursunov in the semi-final of the Kremlin Cup live tonight on Eurosport and the Serb is as short as 4/11 on the washing line this morning. This I based on the head to head stats.
Tursunov actually holds a 2-1 lead in their three meetings and recently won in three sets when they met in Tokyo. Two of those sets were decided by tie breaks. In fact in their last two meetings four of the last six sets have reverted to a sudden death set format. It is good indicator that the pair are very closely matched.
Given the fact that it is the Kremlin Cup, in Moscow and that Dimitry was born in the Russian capital the 2/1 on the outright market is quite attractive but not as tempting as the 6/4 available that this one goes to a third and final in the total sets market. A Tokyo repeat is priced at 5/1.
