US OPEN BETTING FERNANDO VERDASCO AND DAVID FERRER IN ALL SPANISH R16 CLASH

Fernando Verdasco and David Ferrer have set up a compelling all-Spanish affair in the US Open fourth round and they are set to decide the outcome of their clash late this afternoon at Louis Armstrong Stadium.
Ahead of their clash a plethora of markets, across all platforms, are begging for attention. Verdasco is the favourite in all markets but just by a sliver.
Stan James has Ferdasco listed at 8/11 while David Ferrer is tipped at 11/10. The market so tightly cast, bettors wouldn’t be wrong to assume a close affair. History between these two players points that way as well.
Verdasco takes the 6-4 head-to-head edge over Ferrer but on 2010, they have split two meetings. Verdasco beat Ferrer at Barcelona in the semis, en route to the title. Ferrer beat Verdasco at the Rome Masters, en route to a runner-up finish to Nadal.
Because they are so evenly matched and the market so tightly cast, most of the attention in this match should fall on the performance markets.
Set betting at Stan James has David Ferrer tipped at 10/3 large to win in straight convincing sets. A 3-1 and a 3-2 score line to Ferrer is tipped at 7/2 and 6/1 respectively.
A convincing performance by Verdasco is equally large at 10/3. While a 3-1 and 3-2 score are listed at 7/2 and 11/2.
To win the first set, Ferrer and Verdasco are priced the same at 9/10.
Live-In-Play markets that are set to get underway with this match should offer a whole slate of opportunities for additional returns.
Right now, William Hill is running Live bets on the tournament winner. While Verdasco and Ferrer are considered outside threats to the title at the moment, should they advance further their prices will only shorten. If you fancy either as your US Open champion, getting in on the early action is something to consider. Verdasco is listed as the 28/1 bet while Ferrer is larger at 45/1.
