The second round of Queens continues today in the build up to the main grass event of the year at Wimbledon. Andy Murray, who is the first British player to be seeded number one at the tournament, is continuing his campaign against Italy’s Andreas Seppi and he is well favoured by the bookies who are offering 1/14 for the Scot to win the tie.

Murray will be hoping to add a championship win at queens to his ever expanding CV but he faces some tough competition in the form of Andy Roddick. Historically Roddick has an impressive record at Queens and has won the tournament four times in the previous six years.

However Murray, who is ranked third in the world, is still favourite to win the tournament at 11/8. Whilst Roddick can be backed at 3/1 with Paddy Power, offering better value than betfair who are currently trading at 13/5 on the outcome.

Elsewhere in the tournament, a few other players preparing for Wimbledon might also offer some value. Lleyton Hewitt and James Blake are 20/1 and 25/1 respectively, they would not meet Murray until the final and therefore might be worth backing each way.
