Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #1 – Handicap (-2.5) for Fognini – 1.81.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2 – Total Games Under 23 – 1.65.
Fognini is certainly an unstable player, but he must beat Vukic with confidence. The Australian himself cannot boast of a confident performance. He has been losing too often recently. If the Italian doesn’t mess around, he can cope with such an opponent quite easily.
Most likely, it won’t be a long fight. After all, Vukic is significantly inferior to Fognini in terms of class.
Vukic had a good start to the season. The Australian even won the Challenger in Bangalore. Aleksandar was very close to reaching the Top 100 but failed to fulfil his dream. After winning that event he began to suffer defeats and then missed two months due to injury.
Vukic played last week at the Challenger in Columbus. He made it through the first two rounds, beating Daniel Cox (6-4, 6-2) and Naoki Nakagawa (7-5, 3-6, 7-6). However, he was stopped in the quarter-finals by Cannon Kingsley (3-6, 2-6).
Vukic has recorded three wins in his last five matches at the ATP level.
Fognini continues to find his game. At times, Fabio manages to demonstrate all that he is capable of. At the US Open, for example, Fabio defeated Aslan Karatsev (1-6, 5-7, 6-4, 6-1, 6-4) and then gave Rafael Nadal (6-2, 4-6, 2-6, 1-6) a battle. However, he has yet to show consistent performance.
Fognini has not yet played indoors this season. Moreover, in the hall, Fognini has not the best statistics. For example, throughout his career in such competitions, he played 91 matches. In 52 of them, Fabio was defeated.
Fognini has lost six times in his last seven indoor matches.
In four of Fognini’s last six matches, less than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Under 9.5” with odds of 1.96.
