Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (+5) for Huesler – 1.45.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 22 – 1.97.
Ivashka is the favourite in this pairing, but we believe that Huesler will definitely not be easy prey for Ilya. Marc easily defeated last year’s finalist Mikael Ymer in two sets. We expect a close fight in this pair.
Huesler has a strong serve in his arsenal, which helped him outplay Mikael Ymer in the first round. We are sure that it will not be easy for Ivashka to cope with such a serve, who has been unstable on the whole this season.
Ivashka is in Winston-Salem to defend last year’s title. Last season, he defeated Mikael Ymer (6-0, 6-2) in the final in two sets.
Ilya started his title defence this year with a convincing win over Peter Gojowczyk (6-4, 6-2). It should be noted that on the eve of the Winston-Salem event, Ivashka did well on the Atlanta courts, where he reached the semifinal stage of the tournament.
Ivashka has 4 consecutive victories over left-handed tennis players.
Huesler has already played three matches at Winston-Salem. In qualifying, he defeated Matthew Ebden (6-4, 6-3) and Shintaro Mochizuki (6-2, 6-4) in two sets.
In the main draw, Huesler defeated last year’s finalist Michael Ymer (6-4, 6-4). It should be noted that Marc-Andrea has already won two trophies this year and will return to the world top 100 next week thanks to his successes.
Huesler has failed 4 times in his last 5 meetings against seeded opponents.
In 3 of Huesler’s last 5 matches, less than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set – Under 9.5” with odds of 1.86.
