Bet on the Indian Wells Quarterfinals and Major European Derbies this Weekend
Published March 17, 2022 by Florin P
The Indian Wells semifinals are scheduled for this Friday, while some of the biggest derbies rock European football leagues on Sunday.
This weekend promises to be truly special for football and tennis fans. Exciting matches are scheduled starting on Friday and concluding on Sunday evening, pitting the best teams and athletes against each other. The Indian Wells tournament will reveal its winners on Sunday, in the first major tennis tournament after the Australian Open. Barcelona and Real Madrid play another El Clasico, while Lazio and AS Roma meet for the Derby of the Capital. You can bet on all these matches at 1xBet and bet365 sports.
The Present and Future of Tennis on Display at Indian Wells
Rafael Nadal is back in the spotlight, with a real chance to win the Indian Wells tournament. He plays against Kyrgios, one of the most nonconformist players in history. The Spanish champion is the obvious favorite to win, with odds of 3/10, while the Australian is priced at 5/2 by bet365 sports.
In the same tournament, Alcaraz takes on Cameron Norrie for a place in the semi-finals. The young Spaniard has many of the qualities that made Nadal famous and is expected to dominate the clay season. In this match, he is the favorite to win after also defeating the Englishman at the US Open last year.
Halep and Swiatek will play in the Indian Wells semi-final in a match that marks their fourth encounter. The Romanian won twice but is credited with the second chance and even odds by 1xBet. We like her chances to win, especially in these odds, as she hasn’t dropped a set in the last three matches.
Barcelona Travels to Madrid for El Clasico
Barcelona has reduced the gap separating it from Real Madrid, but it is unlikely to pose a threat to the championship. They will still throw everything they’ve got at their archrivals when the two teams meet for El Clasico on Sunday. 1xBet offers odds of 11/10 on Real Madrid and 24/10 on Barcelona. This is likely to be a game with many goals and yellow cards, so expect plenty of action in Madrid.
AS Roma and Lazio Meet in the Eternal Derby
AS Roma and Lazio are expected to turn Rome into a raging volcano as they meet once again in the Derby of the Capital. The two teams are separated by just one point, yet they trail the leader by 20 and have no chance to win the trophy. The stakes are high because they compete for a place in the Champions League. AS Roma has a tiny advantage and odds of 3/2 at bet365 sports, with Lazio being priced at 18/10.
Two Derbies Rock French Football on Sunday
Southern France comes to life this weekend when Monaco and Marseille prepare for two derbies. The former welcome the reigning champions and current leaders PSG, while Marseille takes on Nice in a local derby. Monaco will try to take advantage of PSG’s frustration after the Champions League elimination and confirm the odds of 27/10 offered by bet365 sports. The same goes for Nice who tries to cause an upset on the road against Marseille, a team it defeated in two of the last three matches.
