It was looking pretty bleak for Andy Murray as he went two sets down to Stepanek in the first round. Again he managed to fight back and get a five-set win. Not exactly inspiring for those who have him to win this tournament. Hopefully he can put in a much more confident display as he faces world number 164 Mathias Bourgue. The pair have never faced each other before but that's hardly surprising as the Frenchman usually plays on the Challenger circuit. He did reach a Challenger Final in China but lost to Jordan Thompson who's 118 in the world and started the year with a loss to the world number 524 Julien Benneteau.  His best win was a victory over world number 61 Diego Schwartzmann this month. He beat 216th ranked Jordi Samper-Montana in the first round. Murray really should have few problems in this match but if he gets off to a slow start again then a bet on over 24.5 games can be a winner here. The Frenchman took nine games off 82nd ranked Donald Young earlier this month and had that win over Schwartzmann so this might not be a total slaughter.
