ATP Brussels Best Bets Including Mpetshi Perricard vs Ruusuvuori

ATP 250 Brussels 1/16-Finals

Altmaier – Bailly: 14.10.2025 11:00 CEST
H2H: 1-0

Daniel Altmaier has lost three of his last five matches. Last week in Shanghai, Altmaier lost to Sinner in the second round in straight sets. This will be his second appearance in Brussels. Last season in Brussels, the German lost to Lehecka in the second round in straight sets.

Gilles Arnaud Bailly has won three of his last five matches. Last week in Greece, Bailly lost against Coulibaly in the 1/8-Finals of the Challenger tournament. This week in Brussels, Bailly qualified for the main draw tournament by winning both qualifying matches in straight sets. In the final qualifying round, Bailly upset Royer in two tiebreaks.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Altmaier is the favourite in this matchup, and we agree. The German was consistent this season and now hopes to enter the top 50 once again. Last season in Antwerp under similar conditions, Altmaier defeated Bailly in straight sets. We expect a similar outcome tomorrow.

That being said, Altmaier covering the games handicap is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Daniel Altmaier -3.5 games handicap @1.83 @bet365

Royer – Baez: 14.10.2025 13:30 CEST
H2H: first meeting

Valentin Royer has won three of his last five matches. Last week in Shanghai, Royer lost to Zverev in the second round in straight sets. This week in Brussels, the Frenchman failed to qualify for the main draw tournament by losing in the final qualifying round. However, with several players withdrawing from the tournament, he entered the main draw as a lucky loser.

Sebastian Baez has lost four of his last five matches. Last week in Shanghai, Baez lost to Rune in the second round in straight sets. Last season in Brussels, the Argentine lost to Bergs in the second round in straight sets.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Royer is the slight favourite in this matchup, and we agree. Baez is a clay-court specialist, but he never succeeded on hard courts, especially not on indoor hard courts. On the other hand, the Frenchman had his breakthrough season this year, and we expect him to win easily.

That being said, Royer covering the games handicap is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Valentin Royer -3.5 games handicap @1.83 @bet365

Ruusuvuori – Mpetshi Perricard: 14.10.2025 14:00 CEST
H2H: 0-2

Emil Ruusuvuori has lost three of his last five matches. Last week in France, Ruusuvuori lost to Kypson in the quarterfinals in three tight sets. He is playing with the protected ranking this week in Brussels.

Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard has lost three of his last five matches. Last week in Shanghai, the Frenchman lost to Rune in the 1/8-Finals in three tight sets. He was the quarterfinalist here in 2023. Last season, he lost to Seyboth Wild in the opening round.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Mpetshi Perricard is the slight favourite in this matchup, and we agree. Ruusuvuori is returning to his best tennis. However, he still needs more competitive matches. Mpetshi Perricard leads 2-0 in head-to-head meetings against Ruusuvuori and is in solid form. We expect him to win.

That being said, Mpetshi Perricard winning is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard winning @1.50 @bet365
