Daniel Evans has played extremely well during the Australian Open to date, but his overall career statistics indicate that he will not be able to maintain this level. Bernard Tomic has a superior hold/break percentage to Evans on hard court over the past 12 months and he should be able to record a more comfortable victory.
The New Zealand Breakers are generally considered home court specialists, but their record away from home this season has been fairly good. New Zealand are 9-17 against the line as away underdogs, while the Illawarra Hawks are 5-8 against the line as home favourites for a clear loss.
The Brisbane Heat have already qualified for the Big Bash Finals, while this is a must-win clash for the Melbourne Renegades. The Heat got the job done without Chris Lynn and Brendon McCullum last start, but they are still a weaker unit without Lynn and the Renegades spin bowling outfit could trouble the Brisbane-based outfit.
Sydney FC remain unbeaten in the A-League this season, but they have still not been a profitable betting play as home favourites over the past 12 months. Adelaide United have played some improved football in recent weeks and they have taken a point from six of their past nine games as away underdogs.
