Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #1 – Handicap (-1) for Sonego – 1.96.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2 – Total Games Over 22 – 1.56.
Sonego knows very well how to act in confrontations with Bublik. Three times the Italian has beaten the representative of Kazakhstan. Moreover, Lorenzo’s last two victories over Alexander were very confident. It seems that Sonego has caught courage in this tournament. We believe he has a better chance to take the title.
The final match probably won’t be over quickly. Too often, Bublik plays long matches here. It is possible that this encounter will be no exception.
Bublik reached the ATP final for the third time this season. Earlier this year, he won the title in Montpellier and lost in the deciding match at the Newport tournament.
On Saturday, he faced Stan Wawrinka (1-2, walkover), who sensationally defeated Daniil Medvedev this week.
However, for his match against Bublik, as expected, Stan had no fuel left. Stan withdrew after just three games. So instead of a semi-final, Alexander almost had a day off.
However, before that, he had three super-tense matches. Bublik barely defeated Evan Furness (5-7, 6-4, 7-6), Emil Ruusvuori (6-7, 6-4, 6-3) and Holger Rune (6-3, 5-7, 6-4).
Aleksandr Bublik has won six straight matches at the indoor hard courts.
Sonego, meanwhile, reached his first ATP tournament final of the season. All in all, it will be his fifth career final.
Lorenzo defeated Hubert Hurkacz (7-6, 6-4) in the semi-final match. The Italian defeated a top-10 player for the first time since last spring.
This time, Hurkacz had nothing at all on the receiving end. The Pole had not a single break point, while Sonego managed to take one game on the receiving end.
In previous rounds, Sonego beat Aslan Karatsev (7-5, 6-3), Gilles Simon (7-6, 6-4) and Sebastian Korda (6-4, 6-4) without dropping a single set either.
Lorenzo Sonego has won four straight matches against top-50 tennis players at the indoor hard courts.
No tie-breaks have been played in 3 of Sonego’s last 5 matches. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – No” with odds of 1.90.
