Our favourite Andy Murray vs David Goffin – match predictions

Murray seems to have gotten the ball rolling again with starts in Doha and Dubai but continues to lack the finishing edge. On the other hand, Goffin with only one main draw win in 2024 also has a lot to look forward to.

Andy Murray to win @ 63/100 (1.63)

Given Goffin’s troubles on the tour, it is difficult to see him get past Murray. Add to the fact that in H2H duels, the Scotsman leads 7-1 and the argument in favour of Murray increases. With the three-time Grand Slam winner starting to get wins under his belt, we are backing him to triumph in this duel.

Under 22.5 Games @ 4/5 (1.80)

With the exception of his sole defeat to Goffin in Abu Dhabi, Murray has not conceded a set to the Belgian ace. As they lock horns again, we believe this will be the case again as the British ace gets over the line in straight sets. This claim is further strengthened by Goffin’s struggling displays in qualifying rounds, which makes the case for an easy win for Murray in under 22.5 games.

Andy Murray vs David Goffin odds

With a 61.3% implied probability of victory, Murray enters the contest against Goffin as the favourite, backed by his recent resurgence and a dominant head-to-head record. Nevertheless, the Belgian with a 43.5% implied probability, cannot be discounted.

Andy Murray preview

The great Scotsman started the campaign with a run of poor form, earning three first-round exits. In Doha and Dubai, he has shown signs of a resurgence with consecutive second-round appearances. His ability to grind out tough matches, as evidenced by his victory over Denis Shapovalov, suggests he is regaining his competitive edge. However, his defeat to Jakub Mensik revealed he still has some mental hiccups to overcome, one that he needs to overcome to complete his swansong.

Marred by injuries, Goffin is not the same force he established himself as. The Belgian has faced struggles in recent years, as reflected by his need to qualify for the Indian Wells Masters. He was made to work hard by Maxime Cressy and Luca Nardi, both of whom stretched him to a deciding set before faltering. While he managed to navigate through the qualifying rounds, his overall form has been inconsistent, with only one main-draw victory at tour-level events this year.
