Otte is in fine form at the moment. In recent grass tournaments, Oscar defeated Denis Shapovalov, Nikoloz Basilashvili and Karen Khachanov. We believe that Alcaraz Garfia will have a very difficult match.
Alcaraz Garfia is a clay specialist and there are questions about his game on the grass courts. He is not perfect on grass, he can at some point falter, which Otte is able to take advantage of. All the more so as the German is playing this season.
Otte, as expected, made it through the first rounds quietly. At the start of the tournament, Otte defeated compatriot Peter Gojowczyk (6-1, 6-2, 6-1), surrendering a total of only four games to his opponent.
In the second round, Oscar faced Chris Harrison (3-1, walkover). Chris withdrew early in the first set but still managed to lose a game on his serve before that.
In June, Otte had great performances in Stuttgart and Halle. On both occasions, he reached the semi-finals but was stopped by Matteo Berrettini (6-7, 6-7) and Daniil Medvedev (6-7, 3-6) respectively.
Otte reached the third round at Wimbledon for the first time.
Otte has lost 9 of his last 10 meetings as an underdog.
Alcaraz, meanwhile, could have dropped out after the first round. On Monday, Carlos had a difficult match against Jan-Lennard Struff (4-6, 7-5, 4-6, 7-6, 6-4).
Carlos was 1-2 down in sets but eventually bounced back, although the fourth set was very disturbing, as Otte only dropped the tie-break.
Meanwhile, Alcaraz’s second-round match against Tallon Griekspoor (6-4, 7-6, 6-3) was played significantly well. This time, Alcaraz was enough for three sets.
There is a suspicion that Alcaraz will play better and better with each match. The 19-year-old tennis player simply needs some time to adjust to the surface, because he’s rarely played on grass before.
Alcaraz has 16 wins in his last 17 matches.
In Alcaraz’s last 5 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 the odds of 1.48.
Otte has played three tie-breaks in his last five games. We offer to bet on “Tie-Break – Yes” with the odds of 2.41.
