The current playing conditions of Berankis definitely do not allow him to count on a positive outcome in his upcoming match against Rublev. Ricardas has only one win in four games on the court this season and failed to beat world #169 in qualifying.
Berankis failed to qualify for Hamburg but got a chance to play in the main draw after Alexander Bublik withdrew. However, we don’t think Ricardas will have much to look forward to against Rublev.
Rublev’s first opponent was to be Alexander Bublik, who never made it to Hamburg. Bublik decided to take a short break after an unpleasant defeat in the final of the tournament in Newport.
Bublik’s place in the main draw was taken by Berankis, who initially did not manage to overcome qualifications.
In the first round of qualifying, Ricardas narrowly defeated German Mats Rosenkranz (6-4, 7-6) before losing to Luca Nardi (5-7, 2-6).
In late June, Berankis won one match at Wimbledon. In the second round, he lost to Rafa Nadal but still managed to play decent tennis against Rafa and even took one set.
Berankis had played just two matches earlier this season at the ATP main draw level.
Berankis has lost his last ten matches against opponents from the top 10.
Rublev, meanwhile, had a good tournament in Bastad. He made it to the semi-finals, which is not too bad considering he had only been training for a month before.
In the first match, Andrey barely defeated Federico Coria (7-5, 4-6, 7-6) before defeating Laslo Djere (7-5, 6-4).
However, the semi-final match against Sebastian Baez clearly did not go well. Although it must be admitted that his opponent played very strong tennis on that day.
However, in any case, Rublev warmed up well before an important tournament for himself. Andrey took the title in Hamburg in 2020 and reached the final in 2019.
Rublev has nine wins in his last ten matches on the Hamburg courts.
Berankis has played only one tie-break in his last five games. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – No” with odds of 1.35.
