Tennis Predictions: Queen’s Club, Berlin and Halle best bets and picks for Wednesday, June 19th

Queen’s Club, Berlin and Halle predictions and best bets for June 19th

With the French Open having just ended, the tennis action will be all over the place until Wimbledon (which I already previewed). There are grass-court events in all different parts of the world (Queen’s Club, Berlin and Halle), and there are also some Challenger-level events being played. I’ll be taking a bit of a scattered approach over the next few weeks, taking advantage of the insane amount of tennis to find value wherever I can. Below you’ll find some tennis best bets for the Cinch Championships at the Queen’s Club in London, the ecotrans Ladies Open (German Open) in Berlin and the Terra Wortmann Open (Halle Open) in Halle for Wednesday, June 19th.

I’m going to quickly hit on some of my favorite picks below, but I usually have a lot more tennis predictions on the Pro Picks page. I also occasionally add some picks throughout the day, as schedules can get wonky with the international nature of the sport. I also like to see how odds are moving. That said, keep checking the page every couple of hours if you want more of my picks.

2024 Record: 400-400 (+45.32 units)

Katerina Siniakova vs. Qinwen Zheng – Berlin

I had Siniakova to beat Emma Navarro in her last match, which obviously ended up going pretty well. The 28-year-old earned a 6-4, 6-3 victory in that match, marking her third consecutive straight-set win at this tournament (including qualifiers). Siniakova is now 22-21 on grass in her WTA career, and that includes a 7-2 record over the last 52 weeks. Siniakova is just a very dangerous player on these faster courts, where her doubles background really comes into play. Siniakova is able to hold serve pretty easily, while also knowing how to win quick points. Whether it’s with big strokes from the baseline or quick rushes to the net, she’s great about staying aggressive and putting pressure on her opponents. And I ultimately like her approach and experience against Zheng.

I actually highlighted Zheng as a player to watch heading into Wimbledon, but this is a tough matchup for her. While Zheng has a big baseline game, Siniakova has the ability to hit with her. And she’s also the better mover between these two. Zheng is also just 3-6 on grass in her career, so I think she has a lot to overcome in this matchup. That said, I’m taking the moneyline in a match in which I think Siniakova should be viewed as the favorite.

Bet: Siniakova ML (+116 – 1.5 units)

Andy Murray vs. Jordan Thompson – Queen’s Club

I’m going to take a chance on Murray to beat Thompson in London. Murray had a small back procedure done a couple of weeks ago, and he hasn’t been playing well in 2024 — especially in the return game. But he seems to be really locked in this week. Murray was able to get a few breaks in his opening-round win over Alexei Popyrin, who is a huge server. That was a great sign for the five-time Queen’s Club singles champion. Murray also happened to get the better of Carlos Alcaraz in a practice set the other day. With that in mind, I just don’t think it’s crazy to expect Murray to find a way to outlast Thompson. The Australian has a no-nonsense game and can be hard to beat when he’s on. But Murray is a little more talented and has done a lot more on this surface. He’ll also have the crowd firmly in his corner. That said, I like the three-time Grand Slam champion to advance.

Bet: Murray ML (+115)
