Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-4) for Rublev – 1.66.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 22 – 1.65.
Krajinovic performed well in his first-round match against Tiafoe, however, it should be noted that the American is not in his best form now, so his loss to the Serb was not a big surprise. Rublev, on the other hand, is unlikely to perform bad. Andrey reached the quarter-finals in Rome last year and will be defending his ranking points here this year.
All head-to-head meetings between Rublev and Krajinovic have ended in two sets. We believe that this match will not go beyond two sets.

Andrey Rublev:
Rublev won two matches at the Madrid Masters last week. The Russian scored hard-fought victories over Jack Draper (2-6, 6-4, 7-5) and Dan Evans (7-6, 7-5). Both games turned out to be as tense as possible, despite Andrey being the clear favourite.
Rublev lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas (3-6, 6-2, 4-6) in the quarter-finals. He had a tougher game against this opponent on the clay. Although after the second set, which ended 6-2 in Rublev’s favour, it seemed that the Greek would not make it this time. However, Tsitsipas was noticeably better in the decisive set.
Overall, Rublev seemed to be doing well on the clay court so far this season. His biggest so far was winning the tournament in Belgrade. In the decisive match, Andrey beat Novak Djokovic (6-2, 6-7, 6-0).
Filip Krajinovic:
Krajinovic, meanwhile, has little to boast about. The Serb can consider his second-round exit at the Rome Masters a success.
Filip defeated Francis Tiafoe (7-6, 7-6) in the opening match, taking both sets on the tie-break.
Before that, Krajinovic won only one of his four matches on clay. In Belgrade, he beat Belgian player David Goffin (6-3, 7-6).
At the Masters in Monte Carlo and Madrid, Krajinovic crashed out after the first round.
