Wimbledon Men's Singles Day 3 Tips: Back Halys to double up against Vukic

• First round schedule delayed

• Djokovic expected to ease to another win

• Halys again the value selection

Rain delays the big headline at Wimbledon

The two previews on Monday and Tuesday have covered the first round matches, and many of those are still to be played on the Wednesday schedule as an attempt will be made to get the tournament back on schedule following rain scuppering much of day two.

We did, however, pick up a winner from day one's previews with Quentin Halys finishing an underdog triumph over the out of form Dan Evans.

Djokovic among heavy favourites in round twoz

In theory at least, the round two matches featuring the winners from Monday are due on court on Wednesday afternoon, and these include Novak Djokovic, who is unsurprisingly an overwhelming favourite over Jordan Thompon.

Hubert Hurkacz is another ultra-strong favourite, against Brit wild card Jan Choinski, while Jannik Sinner, Casper Ruud plus Andrey Rublev are all strong favourites to progress as well.

Ruud didn't overly convince against Laurent Lokoli in round one, and given his lack of grass experience, a match against a home player - Liam Broady - may be more tricky than some anticipate.

Halys looking like value against Vukic

Only several matches in round two feature players priced close to even money (the more competitive-looking clashes) and the first is Alexandar Vukic against Quentin Halys.

As mentioned, the big-serving Halys got the job done for us against Dan Evans with relative ease, and I think he can manage a repeat against Vukic in what looks likely to be a very serve-oriented match-up.

Sample sizes on grass are pretty small, but both players have held over 90% of the time in main tour grass matches in the last three years, but Halys has a huge edge on return points won and breaking serve, and this makes me think that the 1.684/6 about the Frenchman looks some value.

Vukic has struggled against lowly opposition in Challenger events in the last month, and I think Halys will be too much of an upgrade in opponent quality on Wednesday.

Mmoh potentially fatigued for Marterer clash

The other one is qualifier Max Marterer against lucky loser Michael Mmoh, with Marterer the 1.814/5 slight favourite. Mmoh made full use of his lucky loser spot with a shock win over Felix Auger-Aliassime in a four-setter lasting just over four hours, and while Marterer also won in four sets in round one, it was in under three hours.

However, the German did need five sets to win in qualifying against Fabian Marozsan, so both players could be relatively fatigued.

Both players have barely played on grass in recent years, but Mmoh has a decent advantage on hard court numbers, both indoor and outdoor, so pricing this up is tricky. If it wasn't for the long time spent on court already in the tournament, I'd think Mmoh looked the pick here.
