British number one Andy Murray is second favourite to win the ATP Shanghai Masters as he goes in search of a hat-trick of successive title victories.
The Scottish star is in sensational form at the moment and has recently added the ATP Thailand Open and ATP Japan Open titles to his collection and will be looking to pick up a unique treble.
Murray, who can be backed at 2/1 with
Bet365, is also the defending ATP Shanghai Masters champion and will be feeling very confident of another title success considering he just made light work of Rafael Nadal in the ATP Japan Open Final in Tokyo.
Despite losing to Murray in Tokyo, Nadal, who is the world number two, is deemed as the favourite to win the ATP Shanghai Masters outright and can be backed at 15/8.
With the withdrawal of world number one Novak Djokovic it is fully expected that Nadal and Murray will contest the Final on Sunday, but if you do not fancy backing either of them Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga is next in line and can be backed at 11/1.
Other top class players who are in with a shout at taking home the ATP Shanghai Masters include Tomas Berdych (12/1), Mardy Fish (14/1) and David Ferrer (20/1), while Andy Roddick (33/1) is a good outside bet to end up on top.
