Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-4.5) for Medvedev – 2.12.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 21.5 – 1.97.
Van Rijthoven is undoubtedly in great form at the moment. Victories over Fritz and Auger Aliassime have certainly given him more confidence, so we believe that he is quite capable to fight Medvedev in the upcoming meeting. However, Medvedev will not make his opponent feel comfortable.
Van Rijthoven has a strong serve in his arsenal, which has helped him many times on the local courts. We believe it will help him a player in his upcoming match against Medvedev. However, it seems Medvedev will win the match in two sets.
For the second time in his career, Medvedev reached the final of the ATP grass-court tournament.
On Saturday, Daniel beat Adrian Mannarino (7-5, 7-5). This time he succeeded, first of all, due to his good game on the receiving end.
Medvedev also had enough errors on his serve, as he converted three of his four break points. Daniil took five games on Adrian’s serve.
This is the second final of the season for Medvedev. He lost his first to Rafael Nadal (6-2, 7-6, 4-6, 4-6, 5-7) at the Australian Open.
Medvedev has won 9 of his last 10 matches against wild-card holders.
Van Rijthoven, meanwhile, is playing only the second ATP tournament of his career. The first was in 2016 at Winston-Salem.
It just so happened that this time Tim heroically made it to the final. Apparently, his opponents were confident that they would have no problems in a match against the 205th-ranked player.
He started off with a win over Matthew Ebden (7-6, 7-6) before sensationally defeating Taylor Fritz (6-7, 7-5, 6-4).
He defeated Hugo Gaston (7-6, 6-4) in the quarter-finals. However, before the semi-finals, there was little doubt that Tim’s star hour was coming to an end as he faced Felix Auger Aliassime (6-3, 1-6, 7-6).
Van Rijthoven confidently took the first set and gave away the second without a struggle. In the third set, he defeated Felix in the tie-break.
Van Rijthoven has played at least 23 games in five matches on grass this season.
Medvedev has only played one tie-break in his last five matches. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – No” with the odds of 1.41.
