Keys To Success at ATP Sofia
As always at an indoor event, having a strong serve and clean groundstrokes are the key to success. Some experience on the European indoor circuit is another thing to look for when picking the winner here.

ATP Metz Betting Tips
Pavel Kotov 1pt EW @ 12/1 with Bet365
In a tournament with no real standout players, this appeared to be a good opportunity to back one of the most in-form players. Kotov reached the final in Stockholm but has had a couple of weeks off since, so shouldn’t be fatigued from that great run. He has a great opening draw here before taking on Sebastian Baez, but the Argentine has slowed down as the season has continued.
Rinky Hijikata 0.25pt EW @ 50/1 with Bet365
The Australian seems to be a touch too big here. He walloped his opening opponent in their last head-to-head, and with the field so evenly matched, it is worth taking such a big price on a talented player.
