Marta Kostyuk vs. Jasmine Paolini

Best Bet: Jasmine Paolini +3.5 games (+105 at DraftKings).

The market appears to be overvaluing Marta Kostyuk’s grass-court advantage, making underdog Jasmine Paolini (+223) the value side of the board.

Kostyuk possesses undeniable power, winning 73% of her first-serve points and striking 15 aces this week, but she has also been erratic, committing 17 double faults.

Paolini has been vulnerable on serve, facing 41 break points, yet she owns a slight edge in second-serve points won (53% to 52%) while converting 49% of her break-point opportunities compared to Kostyuk’s 42%.

Best Bet: Jasmine Paolini +3.5 games (+1020 or better).

Linda Noskova vs. Elise Mertens

Best Bet: Elise Mertens moneyline (+143) or +2.5 games (-117) at DraftKings

Elise Mertens (+143) offers one of the best-value opportunities on the quarterfinal card against the heavily favored Linda Noskova (-155). Noskova has earned respect with a 9-1 grass-court record this season, supported by 25 aces and a 72% first-serve points-won percentage.

Mertens counters with superior return numbers, converting 57% of her break-point opportunities compared to Noskova’s 54%, while generating 20 total breaks this week.

With neither player carrying a fatigue advantage, Mertens’ consistency from the baseline and stronger return game give the Belgian the betting value.

Best Bet: Elise Mertens moneyline (+143) or +2.5 games (-117).

Arthur Fery vs. Flavio Cobolli

Best Bet: Arthur Fery moneyline at +226 at DraftKings

British wild card Arthur Fery is an intriguing +220 underdog against world No. 10 Flavio Cobolli (-275). Fery already owns a straight-set victory over Cobolli at the 2026 Australian Open, giving him confidence entering this rematch.

While Cobolli has produced more aces this week (45 to 24), Fery has been more efficient on second serve, winning 52% of those points compared to Cobolli’s 49%, while also converting 49% of his break-point chances versus Cobolli’s 41%.

Add in the home crowd at Wimbledon, and Fery offers appealing underdog value.

Best Bet: Arthur Fery moneyline at +170 or better.

Taylor Fritz vs. Alexander Zverev

Best Bet: Fritz moneyline (-115 at DraftKings)

Taylor Fritz has held a clear edge over Alexander Zverev in recent years, making him one of the strongest plays on Wednesday’s card. Fritz owns a 10-5 career head-to-head advantage and has won seven consecutive meetings across all surfaces.

He’s also been the sharper grass-court player this season with an 11-2 record, while winning 62% of his second-serve points this week compared to Zverev’s 55%.

Just as importantly, Fritz has logged roughly three fewer hours on court, giving him a meaningful freshness advantage heading into the quarterfinals.

Best Bet: Taylor Fritz moneyline up to -145.
