Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-1) for Cecchinato – 1.83.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 21 – 1.67.
Experience in this pairing is certainly on Cecchinato’s side. He is probably the preferred player in this match. Marco has played in Szczecin six times before and reached the semi-finals twice. We expect Cecchinato to do well in Poland this season as well.
Cecchinato, thanks to his experience, seems to be the best option in this pairing. Shevchenko still lacks stability, especially in games against more experienced opponents. However, we believe that he will be able to cause problems for Marco in the upcoming game.
On the eve of the competition in Szczecin, Cecchinato failed in his two Challenger matches as he left the Como and Tullin tournaments after the opening matches.
Before that, Cecchinato had been good in San Marino, reaching the semi-finals of the tournament. In Szczecin, Cecchinato started with a convincing win over Gianmarco Moroni, winning in two sets (6-3, 6-1).
Cecchinato has won 7 of his last 10 matches against lower-ranked opponents.
Shevchenko, after a good first half of the season, has slowed down a little. The young Russian definitely lacks stability.
Recall that Alexander won two trophies in the first half of the year. He managed to win one of the futures and later he sealed victory at the tournament in Bratislava, defeating Riccardo Bonadio (6-3, 7-5) in the final. In the first round of the Challenger in Szczecin, Shevchenko defeated Manuel Ginard (6-2, 6-3) in two sets.
Shevchenko has lost 3 times in his last 5 matches against the seeded players.
Cecchinato has played 3 tie-breaks in the last 5 matches. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – Yes” with odds of 2.76.
