Novak Djokovic is cruising at Wimbledon, which doesn&#8217;t bode well for Alex De Minaur. Lastly, Flavio Cobolli is a nice pick to beat Marin Cilic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my top Wimbledon predictions for July 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wimbledon predictions: July 7<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Best Bet: Cobolli to win (-110)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cobolli still doesn&#8217;t appear to be getting his due respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Italian earned an upset win over Jakub Mensik in the third round at The Championships as he continues to stack stellar results together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has now won 12 of his last 15 matches, including a title at the Hamburg Open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s hard to knock Cobolli&#8217;s losses, either, as two of those three have come to Alexander Zverev.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cilic is a bit of a grass specialist, going 97-35 on the surface in his career and 9-1 in 2025. His record this year does include seven matches at the Challenger level, though, which is worth mentioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cilic boasts a dominant serve that has been troubling opponents for years. Cobolli has demonstrated a strong all-around game in recent matches and has a serve that plays well on grass. He has 24 aces to eight double faults at Wimbledon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two have never faced off on grass, but Cobolli does hold a distinct 2-0 series lead over the Croatian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Bet: Sinner vs. Dimitrov<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sinner -7.5 games (-115):<\/strong> This has nothing to do with Dimitrov, who is playing some excellent tennis ahead of this contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bulgarian has only lost one set at The Championships so far, but will be facing a top-50 competitor for the first time at this tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And he&#8217;s not facing just any top-50 player; he&#8217;s battling Sinner, who is in fine form at Wimbledon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out Sinner&#8217;s results to this point in the tournament:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>vs. Luca Nardi (6-4, 6-3, 6-0)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>vs. Aleksandar Vukic (6-1, 6-1, 6-3)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>vs. Pedro Martinez (6-1, 6-3, 6-1)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sinner has won all three of his matches by 11 games or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These two competitors have never squared off on grass, but Sinner has dominated the head-to-head history. The Italian boasts a 4-1 record, winning each of the last four meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, Sinner&#8217;s elite return skills should be able to convert breaks and cash this wager. The former is third in percentage of serve games won (29.1%) while the latter is 29th (21.7%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Bet: Djokovic vs. De Minaur<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Djokovic -2.5 sets (+138):<\/strong> I will continue betting on Djokovic to cruise on grass until he runs into Carlos Alcaraz or Sinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Serbian has advanced to the final at the last six Wimbledons he has participated in and boasts an otherworldly 98-11 record on the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>De Minaur has played very well at The Championships, dropping only one set so far. The level of competition he has squared off against, however, leaves plenty to be desired, as he hasn&#8217;t faced anybody inside the ATP&#8217;s top-70 players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Djokovic, meanwhile, has already dismantled two top-50 competitors and has covered this spread in each of his last two victories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, bettors can trust Djokovic to come through in the clutch moments of this match. He ranks 10th in under-pressure rating across the last 52 weeks, while De Minaur places 28th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Wimbledon predictions made at 3:42 p.m. on 07\/06\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talents like Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic are featured in my round of 16 Wimbledon predictions.
