Tennis: Quarterfinals and Semis at ATP Rotterdam
The ATP 500 Rotterdam tournament is heating up. With the quarterfinals on February 13, 2026, we’re seeing some big names battling it out.
Ugo Humbert vs Christopher O’Connell: Quarterfinal
Humbert, a French player with a solid record, is favored against O’Connell. Both have had good runs this week. Humbert has won three of his last five matches and defeated Medvedev in the opening round after playing for almost three hours.
O’Connell, though, is on a winning streak too.
He upset Norrie in straight sets recently, turning around from 1-3 down in the first set to clinch victory. Bookies favor Humbert, but he’s expected to win in straight sets for value.
Alex De Minaur vs Botic Van de Zandschulp: Semi-final
De Minaur, the Australian, is looking strong after defeating Fils and Wawrinka. He won the title here last year and finished as a runner-up in the past two editions. Van de Zandschulp has also been impressive this week but faces an uphill battle against De Minaur.
Bookies agree that De Minaur is the favorite, though covering his 4.5 games handicap could be a value bet if you trust his form and consistency on indoor hard courts.
Tallon Griekspoor vs Felix Auger-Aliassime: Semi-final
Griekspoor and Auger-Aliassime have opposite records heading into this match. Griekspoor has won three of his last five, while Auger-Aliassime is on a six-match winning streak after claiming the title in Montpellier recently.
Auger-Aliassime, with his form and recent success, is seen as the clear favorite by bookies. However, covering his 3.5 games handicap could be a smart move if you think Griekspoor might upset the expected outcome.
Value Bets to Consider
Humbert winning in straight sets against O’Connell @1.67 at bet365 is seen as value because of his recent form and indoor hard-court expertise.
De Minaur covering 4.5 games handicap against Van de Zandschulp @1.83 at the same bookie could be a smart move, given De Minaur’s dominance in Rotterdam this week.
Auger-Aliassime winning comfortably against Griekspoor @2.00 is expected by bookies but covering his handicap offers value if you think Griekspoor can turn things around on the day.
Conclusion
The ATP Rotterdam tournament is packed with exciting matches and value bets. While the favorites are favored, it pays to look for underdog stories that might just surprise everyone. Keep an eye on these quarterfinals and semis for some thrilling tennis action.
