Cilic is the clear favourite in this match. He is undoubtedly better, but Ruusuvori’s current playing conditions could allow him to put up a fight against Marin.
Ruusuvori has already played six matches on the grass courts this season. On the whole, the representative of Finland is showing a pretty good level of tennis on this surface. We believe that Emil will be able to compete with Cilic on equal terms in the upcoming meeting.
This will be Ruusuvuori’s fifth match in London. He qualified for the main draw. He defeated Jay Clarke (6-4, 6-2) and Feliciano Lopez (6-3, 6-7, 7-6) in the qualifying.
In the first round, Emil hardly defeated Quentin Halys (6-4, 6-7, 6-4). That game could have been over after the second set, but Rusuvuori played poorly in the tie-break.
In the second round, Emil surprisingly beat Jack Draper (6-2, 7-6), who had easily defeated Taylor Fritz (6-3, 6-2) in the first round.
In Hertogenbosch, Ruusuvuori defeated Botic van de Zandschulp (4-6, 6-2, 6-1), but in the second match, he was defeated by Ilya Ivashka (4-6, 2-6).
Ruusuvuori has had at least one tie-break in his last three matches.
Cilic defeated Liam Broady (6-1, 4-6, 7-5) in the first round. Contrary to expectations, Marin needed all three sets. On the other hand, you have to consider that it was his first match on grass this season.
In the second round, Marin defeated Alexander Bublik (7-6, 7-5). Here he needed only two sets, but it was still difficult.
With his experience and concentration, Cilic was better than his opponent at the end of both sets and made it through to the next round.
Cilic has won the title twice in London.
Cilic has seven wins in his last eight matches.
In 4 of Ruusuvuori’s last 6 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 the odds of 1.52.
Ruusuvori has played four tie-breaks in his last five matches. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – Yes” with the odds of 2.08.
