Medvedev played poorly in Metz last week, so surely Daniil is motivated to play well in Astana. Daniil handled Ramos-Vinolas quite comfortably in the first round. We expect that Ruusuvori will not be a serious problem for Medvedev either.
Medvedev gave up only four games to Ramos-Vinolas in the first round. Daniel is in good form, on the whole, so we expect him to play this match against Ruusuvori at the same good level as in the opening match.
Ruusuvuori defaeted Marc-Andrea Huesler (6-0, 6-2) in the first round. The match was too easy, with the Finn giving up just two games.
There is nothing surprising in this result. Marc-Andrea came to Astana straight after his sensational victory in Sofia. Obviously, he did not have time to recover either physically or mentally, which Emil took advantage of.
Ruusuvuori played a tournament in Tel Aviv in late September. He had a quiet first round, beating J. J. Wolf (6-3, 6-2), but then unexpectedly lost to Constant Lestienne (4-6, 2-6).
Ruusuvuori has crossed paths with the top 10 eight times in the past but has only managed two victories.
Medvedev had no problems at the start of the tournament either. In the first match, Daniil defeated Albert Ramos-Vinolas (6-3, 6-1).
It was clear from the first set that Albert had no chance in this game. If in the first set, he somehow managed to hold on, the second set ended with a smashing victory.
Unlike in Metz, where he lost immediately to Stan Wawrinka (4-6, 7-6, 3-6), Medvedev played his first game almost perfectly, although his opponent was not as serious.
Medvedev has made it past the second round of the previous ten indoor tournaments seven times.
In 3 of Ruusuvori’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 odds of 1.83.
Medvedev has played two tie-breaks in his last five games. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – Yes” with odds of 2.69.
