Thiem vs Cachin Prediction & Pick

Thiem and Cachin aren't strangers to each other. The two foes met in a clay-court tilt at last year's Marbella Challenger, resulting in Cachin walking out with the victory in two sets. Having said that, Thiem has the French Open history on his side, which includes finishing as the runner-up in 2018 and 2019.

More 2023 French Open betting coverage from The Duel:

Although experience is on his side, Thiem is tough to trust after back-to-back first-round exits at Roland Garros. He's also just 19-20 (48.7%) on clay courts over the last two years, whereas Cachin is 56-25 (69.1%) in that regard during that stretch.

Having proven that he can beat Thiem on a clay surface, look for Cachin to pull off the minor upset this weekend.

Winner: Pedro Cachin

Thiem vs Cachin Best Bet

Unfortunately, the moneyline is the only betting option at the moment, making a Cachin outright win at +105 odds the best bet for now. It isn't the worst value, though, as a $100 bet would net you $105 in profits. Still, make sure to check back on FanDuel Sportsbook leading up to the first-round French Open matchup for more playable options.

Bet: Pedro Cachin to Win Outright (+105)
