It doesn’t get any better than this at the 2021 French Open. In the men’s campaign, we’ve reached the final 8 players and the top three seeds are still in contention, so there haven’t been too many unseen shocks and upsets. And today, we have one of the most popular tennis players in history in ‘King of Clay’ Rafael Nadal taking center stage, playing Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman in a 2021 Roland Garros quarter final.
Everyone knows that the Spaniard Rafa is unbeatable on clay but his opponent Schwartzman has been having a stellar ATP Roland Garros 2021 tournament so far too. All signs point towards a Nadal victory again with him being the defending champion. In fact, he’s won 4 continuous French Open titles and has a career total of 13 French Open victories under his belt as well!
One would think that it’s impossible to get past this guy but Schwartzman is super spirited as the #10 seed takes on the #3 seed. Both will be looking to become the first men’s semi finalist this year and we don’t think this is going to be a 3-set victory for Rafa. He’s an overwhelming favourite at 1.02 with BetWinner which means it’s no point betting on him. Consider a bet on the Argentine at very attractive odds of 15.0!
2021 French Open so far
Rafael Nadal is yet to lose a set in this French Open 2021 men’s competition. In fact, he’s even got two sets to nil in this tournament and after beating 3 unseeded players, he beat #18 seed Jannik Sinner pretty convincingly as well. It shows how good he is even at the age of 35 but there’s no value in wagering on him in tennis betting markets today, because even a 3-0 victory has odds of only 1.52 on BetWinner.

Now remember, Schwartzman has also not lost a single set out of the 12 he’s played in this competition. However, he hasn’t played a single seeded player in his four rounds and this will be a stiff challenge for him. We see him ending on the losing side but winning a set is something not impossible for him as he’s done it before against Nadal. Try set betting with a 3-1 win for Nadal at odds of 3.68 on BetWinner!
Rafael Nadal vs Diego Schwartzman head to head
When you look at the head to head stats between Nadal and Schwartzman, you will understand why the odds are so heavily one sided. The two have played 11 times over the years and Nadal leads 10-1. They even met in the semi final of the 2020 French Open, where Nadal won in straight sets. The positive however is that Diego’s only win came at the ATP Masters 1000 Rome where he won in straight sets in 2020, ON CLAY!
