Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime headlines my Shanghai Masters round of 32 picks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pre-match narrative:<\/strong> FAA is rolling right now, and he looks for his spot in the round of 16 as a big favourite over Jesper de Jong. Later on, Juncheng Shang and Nuno Borges match up, and I have my sights set on the underdog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out my top Shanghai Masters predictions for the round of 32.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shanghai Masters predictions: Round of 32<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Best Bet: Auger-Aliassime -1.5 sets (-154)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his first match at this event, Auger-Aliassime dominated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He defeated Alejandro Tabilo in straight sets. He won a whopping 74% of his first serves with 11 aces and never gave his opponent a chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He arguably takes a step back in competition level, drawing De Jong in the second round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dutchman is currently ranked No. 81 and has never been higher than No. 79. He’s played just 14 matches on hardcourts this season (8-6 record).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Auger-Aliassime has had two stints of brilliance this season, and both have been during hard-court season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He now has a very respectful 22-9 record on the playing surface. The Canadian is up to No. 13 in the ATP rankings after starting the season buried in the 20s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key stat:<\/strong> Auger-Aliassime is 10-2 in his last 12 matches, with both losses coming against Jannik Sinner. He was three wins over top-15 opponents during that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tennis best bet: Shang vs. Borges<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Borges to win (+115):<\/strong> The 20-year-old from China is building some momentum, but he has his hands full with Borges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shang has only played 13 matches this season because of injury recovery. He has a 6-7 record but has put together two straight wins at this event, capped off with a victory over Karen Khachanov (No. 10) in straight sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s still very much a promising young talent, but he hasn’t played more than two matches at an event since December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the best in the world would be facing some fatigue ahead of this match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Borges has been consistent all season, with a 30-29 record. This will be the fifth year in a row he has played 60+ matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s won by straight sets twice to qualify for the round of 32, playing one less set than his counterpart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Borges has the experience edge and could hold a significant stamina advantage over Shang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
