Alexander Blockx and Flavio Cobolli meet in the third round of the US Open, with Cobolli ranked No. 5 and Blockx No. 28.

Both players have also shown they can handle long matches. Cobolli came back from two sets down in his previous round to win 3-6, 2-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4, while Blockx won his second-round match in four sets.

Zizou Bergs and Botic van de Zandschulp meet in the third round of the US Open. Van de Zandschulp is the favorite, but the matchup looks much closer than the rankings suggest, with Bergs holding a 40.8% estimated win probability.
Both players have shown the ability to compete in extended matches, and the overall statistics point towards a contest where neither player should have an easy time. Van de Zandschulp also arrives with confidence after defeating Alex de Minaur in straight sets in the previous round.
With Bergs capable of taking a set and Van de Zandschulp likely to be tested, Over 3.5 Sets looks like an attractive selection.
