Australian Open 2024 | Multibets for Week 1

We have dissected the draw so you don’t have to! We will be Jumping early on the lines in the hope that money will be moving in our direction closer to the match. 

In this edition of the multibet, the plan is to scale our picks into short, medium and longshots. Depending on your appetite to risk, you are able to select which multibet appeals to you, or all! 

Marozsan vs Cilic, Men’s Singles, Round One 

Maroszan To Win @ 1.70 with PlayUp

Marozsan is the player who has had much more match practice ahead of the Aussie Open, Cilic has played an exhibition against Murray and lost to Struff in Hong Kong. All signals point towards Marozsan for this one.  

Rinderknech vs Kotov, Men’s Singles, Round One 

Kotov To Win @ 1.60 with PlayUp

Rinderknech has not made the best return back to the tour, he has lost two main draw matches in 2024 and won 2 qualifying matches in Adelaide against the World 660 and 278. Kotov has already beaten Musetti this season and looks to be in better form. 

Garin vs O’Connell, Men’s Singles, Round One 

O’Connell -4.5 Games @ 1.98 with PlayUp

Very much a fan of this line, I would be happy to take as a single also. O’Connell only fell short to Korda in Adelaide, but won in straights to Rinderknech and Shevchenko beforehand. Garin has not played an ATP match yet this year and he may live to regret this. 

Fritz vs Diaz Acosta, Men’s Singles, Round One 

Under 30.5 Games @ 1.80 with PlayUp

This is a complete mismatch and should be a blowout on the quicker Australian hard courts. Fritz shouldn’t really drop a service game. Thompson, who is still not on Fritz’s level, beat Diaz Acosta by 8 games in Adelaide. This is enough to warrant a bet on this for us.  

Snigur vs Parks, Women’s Singles, Round One 

Parks To Win @ 2.05 with PlayUp

First bet on the women’s draw is on Alicia Parks, we have bet her frequently on quicker courts. Simply, she is the better player if she can see consistency on her service games. The Melbourne conditions can play right into the American’s hands in this match-up. 

Korpatsch vs Burrage, Women’s Singles, Round One 

Burrage To Win @ 2.20 with PlayUp

Very happy to be siding with an opponent against Korpatsch at odds against. Korpatsch has lost both matches she has played this year. We feel that the recent match-up in Cluj might be dictating the price. However, Burrage is capable of hitting a quicker ball which benefits her in this part of the world.  

Vukic vs Thompson, Men’s Singles, Round One

Over 12.5 Games 1st Set @ 4.00 with Bet365 

This match has the perfect recipe for a first set tiebreak, with strong serves coming from both sides of the net. They will both be focused on holding in the initial stages of the match. 

Evans vs Sonego, Men’s Singles, Round One

Evans Win From Behind@ 6.50

Evans is certainly a battler, but he must be in the right mood for it. During the middle stage off last season he was not the player that shot him up to the Top 32, however this season he seems to be a little higher in morale. This match should be close and at this price we are happy to cheer on an Evans comeback from a set down.  

Svitolina vs Preston, Women’s Singles, Round One 

Preston To Win @ 7.00

The WTA Tour is not afraid of a longshot winner on the moneyline. A few appealed slightly in the draw, but Preston made the cut. Home crowd should certainly help, she will have gained big confidence by taking a set off Caroline Garcia last week. 

Well, we promised a longshot and there it is. Plenty to watch out for in the early stages of the Australian Open. We opted to keep it simple on the market selections with money lines and totals. However, we will be looking to get a good judgement of the players before we look at the prop markets.
