The 2019 edition of\nthe ATP Finals is about to begin. It\u2019s essentially the final tennis\nevent of the year as we\u2019ll mostly be dormant until the end of\nDecember, although there will be some smaller event. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The top eight players in the world have qualified for this event and we\u2019ll see Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Matteo Berrettini, and Dominic Thiem are in one four-player group while the other will feature Rafael Nadal, Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and Alexander Zverev. Taking a look at the tennis betting lines<\/a>, who is the best bet here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2018 \u2013 ALEXANDER ZVEREV DJOKOVIC +110 This tournament had\na very specific feel one week ago. Rafael Nadal had looked very\nstrong in Paris at the Bercy Masters, rolling into the semifinals,\nand it seemed like a player who was ready to win his first-ever ATP\nFinals championship. On Saturday in Paris, though, Nadal injured his\nabdomen while warming up before his semifinal match against Denis\nShapovalov. In an instant, the complexion of this tournament changed.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Djokovic is now the\nclear favorite and he deserves to be. He won the Paris Masters,\nthough he didn\u2019t have to play Nadal or Roger Federer. He\u2019s been\non top of his game since he left the U.S. Open with a shoulder injury\nand when he\u2019s focused, he\u2019s the guy to beat on hard-courts. He\u2019s\nnow won 13 of his last 14 matches overall. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n The other intriguing player is Daniil Medvedev, who is in the four-player group opposite Djokovic. Given Nadal\u2019s injury \u2013 he his playing in the tournament but is likely to be physically limited \u2013 Medvedev should win his group and\nDjokovic should win his group. He\u2019s been fatigued (and shaky) in\nhis last two tournaments but prior to that, had gone to the final or\nwon the last six events he entered. No player has more hardcourt wins\nthan him this season. A Djokovic victory over Medvedev in the final\nis the most likely outcome. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Alexander Zverev is\nthe defending champion in London, but a month ago, nothing was going\nright for him. However, he made good runs in Beijing and Shanghai,\nreaching the semifinal and the final, respectively, and as a result\nboosted his ranking enough to make this event in London. He has\nconfidence and a renewed sense of knowing how to play, which wasn\u2019t\nalways there in his 2019 season. Zverev is in the group with Nadal,\nwhich gives him a chance to make an underdog run to the final. He\nwasn\u2019t expected to make the final a year ago, so this year could\noffer more of the same. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember that at\nthis event over the last two years, a totally unexpected champion has\nemerged. It hasn\u2019t been the big boys like Djokovic, Federer or\nNadal. Grigor Dimitrov won in 2017 and Zverev won in 2018. This has\nbeen a showcase for surprises in recent years, so don\u2019t be too\nconvinced that the heavyweights will lift the trophy on the final\nSunday, November 17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It has to be Nadal because of the concerns about his injury. It\u2019s supposedly minor and he\u2019s had a couple of weeks to heal. However, Nadal will need a big serve to win a lot of points on an indoor hardcourt surface. If he has to work really hard on every service point, Medvedev \u2013 who is in his group \u2013 has an excellent chance of beating him. Stefanos Tsitsipas is also in Nadal\u2019s group. If Rafa can\u2019t serve, Tsitsipas is also more than good enough to beat the Spaniard. It is rotten luck, but Nadal simply can\u2019t be trusted with his body betraying him at the wrong time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Get the latest tennis betting odds and information–follow BetOnline.ag on Twitter<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\nNITTO ATP FINALS
