Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (+5.5) for Sachko – 1.72.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 20 – 1.86.
Sachko is having a good season and overall we think Vitaliy is capable of causing problems for Lajovic in the upcoming match. Especially since Dusan has been in mediocre playing condition lately.
Sachko is in good form and is unlikely to be easy prey for Lajovic, who hasn’t been doing much lately in terms of gameplay.
Sachko advanced to the main draw of the tournament in Kitzbühel through qualification but lost in the final to Sebastian Ofner (4-6, 4-6). However, he will play in the main draw as a lucky loser.
On clay this season, Sachko has 11 wins against 12 losses. His best result was on the Challenger in Ostrava, where he reached the quarter-finals before losing (5-7, 7-6, 5-7) to Constant Lestienne.
Sachko has lost in eight of his nine career matches against top-100 opponents.
Lajovic did not look his best at the start of the season, but now Dusan is much closer to his former playing form.
Dusan recently reached the semi-finals of the Parma Challenger, losing to Borna Coric (1-6, 5-7). Then, Lajovic reached the quarterfinals in Salzburg where he lost to Thiago Monteiro (4-6, 7-6, 4-6). Last week in Hamburg, Lajovic lost in the first round to Lorenzo Musetti (7-6, 6-7, 3-6).
Lajovic has lost his last four meetings at the ATP 250 level.
In Lajovic’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 2.09.
