PAUL-HENRI MATHIEU VS ROGER FEDERER BETTING TIPS AND LATEST ODDS

Roger Federer is heavily-favoured to continue his recent steamrollering of all competition and the bookmakers are forcing his fans to get creative in their bets on the legendary Swiss ace. If you're looking to back Federer to beat Paul-Henri Mathieu you'll be forced to cope with a very short 1/33 price tag. 
Federer's odds to win the match in straight sets are priced at a slim 1/4 so if you think that Mathieu will put up a solid fight, or Federer might take a while to get going and drop the first set then you can back a 3-1 victory at 4/1 while a 3-2 win pays out at a lengthy 10/1. 
SHould Mathieu be able to force a 3-2 victory, that's his best chance to win and the correct score pays out at 18/1. Mathieu 3-1 pays out at 33/1 while 3-0 rewards at 50/1. 
A tiebreak at any point in the match pays out at 6/5 while no tiebreaks is listed at 8/13. A tiebreak in the first set is trading at 7/2 while a 2nd set tiebreak can be backed at a 4/1 price. 
There are a number of betting options at William Hill for anybody looking to have a punt on the first set. The set total for games is favoured to be between 8.5-10.5 games, and that's listed at an even-money price. Under 8.5 games is priced at 9/5 while over 10.5 is a solid 13/5 price. Federer is 2/7 to win 6 games exactly. 
If you think Federer can win the first two games of the 1st set, you're looking at a solid 2/1 price. A 1-1 draw between the two is the favourite, however, at 2/5. If you think Federer starts with a bang, then this is a great bet. 
This could certainly be one for the in-play punters but if Federer looks sharp early on then the bookmakers will shorten virtually of his prices. Getting a few sharp last minute bets will pay dividends today.
