Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-2) for Musetti – 1.81.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 22 – 1.87.
Musetti has had a streak of four straight defeats, so we expect a special attitude from Lorenzo for the tournament in Hamburg. It will be on Lorenzo’s favourite surface. I expect a successful start for Musetti on the Hamburg courts.
The two players will be facing each other, who have been showing rather mediocre results lately. It’s hard to believe either of them will win the game easily.
Musetti has one trophy to his credit this season. Just recently, t Lorenzo conquered the home Challenger in Forli.
In the final of the Forli Challenger, Lorenzo met with his compatriot Francesco Passaro and managed to beat him in three sets of hard fights (2-6, 6-3, 6-2). The latest results of Muzetti leave much to be desired. He left the competition in London, Wimbledon and the tournament in Bastad after the first round.
Musetti has achieved victory in 8 of his last 10 matches on the clay as a favourite.
Lajovic was a quarter-finalist in Hamburg last year. Last year, he defeated Lucas Pouille (6-4, 6-4) and Alex Molcan (6-4, 6-7, 6-3) before losing in the quarter-finals to Pablo Carreno Busta (6-7, 3-6).
In early July, Lajovic competed at the Challenger in Salzburg, which he dropped in the quarter-finals to Thiago Monteiro (4-6, 7-6, 4-6).
Lajovic has four defeats in his last five matches at the ATP 500 level.
In 4 of the last 5 Lajovićab 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 odds of 1.84.
