Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (+4) for Nakashima – 1.63.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 38.5 – 1.77.
Shapovalov has slowed down in the last couple of months. He is now very unstable, so Nakashima has a good chance of making the third round of Wimbledon for the first time in his career. Brandon is on the move, having reached the quarter-finals at Surbiton and Hertogenbosch before Wimbledon.
Denis will have a difficult match. At this part of the season, Denis is showing unstable tennis, so it will be very difficult for him to confirm his status as a favourite in the upcoming match.
Shapovalov finally won. Before Wimbledon, Denis suffered six defeats in a row. The series certainly dragged on.
At Wimbledon, he started with a victory over Arthur Rinderknech (6-1, 6-7, 6-7, 6-4, 6-1). True, here, too, he did not play well. The only exception was the fifth set in which Arthur took only one game.
Shapovalov won his ninth five-set match. He had a total of 15 such matches. Psychologically, this is a very important result.
Last year, Shapovalov reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon.
Nakashima made his first career first round at Wimbledon. Last year, Brandon lost in the first round to Taylor Fritz (5-7, 6-3, 4-6, 5-7).
This time, Brandon had an easier opponent. In his opening match. he beat Nicola Kuhn (6-3, 6-7, 6-3, 6-2).
Before Wimbledon, Nakashima played well in several grass tournaments. He reached the quarter-finals in Hertogenbosch and the Challenger in Surbiton and he reached the second round in Eastbourne.
In 3 of Nakashima’s last 5 matches, more than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Over 9.5” with the odds of 1.48.
