At Wimbledon today we really fancy Rainer Schuettler to beat Dudi Sela. Schuettler lost last year at Wimbledon to Nadal in semi-finals and after a laboured first round game we expect him to come out motivated and focused this time.

Although Sela is ahead 2-0 in the pair’s head-to-head record, with one of those wins coming this year at the Australian Open in four sets, it is Schuettler who is much better suited to grass. He’s won 33 of his 57 matches on grass and as last year’s deep run in this tournament shows he is very at home in SW19.

Schuettler has a big first serve and is solid from behind the baseline. Ok, he’s not the most agile guy in the world, which is where Sela has a slight advantage, but the weakness in Sela’s game is that his serve can desert him at times and that will tend to create openings for break points.

Take the 2/5 on Schuettler to beat Sela with BetUK and to make life interesting why not put him in a double with Janko Tipsarevic (who can beat Mardy Fish) at 11/10.
