ATP Chengdu Best Bets Including Mpetshi Perricard vs Hanfmann

Mpetshi Perricard vs Hanfmann

In the opening round, Yannick Hanfmann takes on Mpetshi Perricard. Perricard won the only previous meeting between the pair in straight sets back in 2021, but Hanfmann has been in impressive form of late, reaching the semifinals in Metz last week. Hanfmann should have too much quality for Perricard here.

Tip: Hanfmann to win in straight sets

Bonzi vs. Monteiro

Corentin Moutet takes on Thiago Monteiro in what should be a close contest. Monteiro beat Moutet in straight sets in the last meeting between the pair, but Moutet has a 2-1 head-to-head record against the Brazilian. Moutet has also been in better form this season, reaching the semifinals in Marrakech and the quarterfinals in Lyon. He should be favored to win this match.

Tip: Moutet to win in three sets

Kudla vs Gasquet

Denis Kudla faces a tough test against Richard Gasquet in the first round. Gasquet is a former top-10 player who has won 15 ATP titles. He has also been in good form this season, reaching the final in Montpellier. Kudla is a solid player, but he is unlikely to trouble Gasquet on current form.

Tip: Gasquet to win in straight sets
