If not for the Dutch fall by the end of the match, the Bulgarians would maybe even lose by double-digit difference from the Dutch B team. So much about their quality. The coach complained about the inexperience, which leads to nervousness, awkward shots and moves, and in this away match, they also don't have their most experienced player, captain Nikolov. The Montenegrins were brilliant against Israel on Cyprus. It was an organized game, and they used great tactics to take advantage of Israeli's game weaknesses. They're extremely strong in pick'n'roll situations, which can be hardly defended by the Bulgarians who are pretty bad in the paint. Montenegro should impose themselves and finally get the second win in these qualifications. They should be convincing, because Pavicevic's team are a lot better than the green Bulgarians. Details

This is a typical bet when it coems to Isner, and it passes often. The American is currently the world leading player when it comes to keeping his own serve games (93%), and his (in)abilities on return are also well known. He's an often guest of tie-breaks in the first set, something that happened to Matosevic two times this year. The Australian is a very experienced player, he knows what he can expect, and I think that we'll see the first set with very few chances in Cincinnati's fast conditions. Details

This is clear. Lisicki will win this match, she'll either defeat herself or defeat Errani. There's no other option. They played the last tournament, Lisicki won in two sets, created her own destiny from the beginning to the end. Errani has problems playing hardcourt this season, she always had, but her style is getting worse this year. Lisicki played a really good last match, got back after being behind in the second set, and played consistently. Add to that a much better serve and strength, a new win should come, and I'm sure a convincing one, too, because Lisicki isn't the one who knows how to stop when she starts crushing it with her tennis.

Winning against Gabashvili won't fool us, and some numbers show there's no change in the Polish's game. He had a lot of double errors again (9), and almost 30 unforced. That passed against the Russian, but he lost to Polanski, a challenger level, with the same numbers last week. Janowicz has almost seven double errors per match this season. He forces because he's got physical problems, and has foot problems when serving. Add to that that it never worked out for him in this part of the season, and he still has no wins in the US Open main lot, then the problems are obvious. On the other hand, Dimitrov anchored himself in Top 10. Just like Federer, he likes outplaying opponents. Robredo complicated his life last week, but the Spaniard was always the best in toughest situations. Janowicz isn't. When he's forcing, and it's not working, he just starts hitting harder. I've seen him in the last weeks, he's not himself. Dimitrov should use that. Details
