Felix Auger Aliassime
Felix Auger Aliassime, a 22-year-old tenis player ranked 13th in the world, is from Canada. Auger spent two years around the 20th place in the rankings. In the previous season, he managed to make a breakthrough to reach top 10 in the world. He initially won his first ATP title after losing eight ATP finals in the previous seasons. Winning the tournament in Rotterdam, could become his driving force in other future finals this year.
In addition to winning the Rotterdam, Felix played several more excellent tournaments this season. At the Australian Open, he played in the quarter-finals against Danil Medvedev, where he had 2-0, during which he was even better on the court in the first half of the third set. Unfortunately, his level of play dropped slightly and Danil managed to turn it around. Regardless of that defeat, it is clear that he is currently one of the best players on the tour.
Here on this tournament, Auger is ranked #1, he loves to play on hard court and it was actually in indoor conditions that he won his first ATP title. The US Open junior champion is 40-24 this year with a 23-12 record on hard courts. However, his form is in a slight decline, which his early elimination from the US Open and his elimination in the first round of Astana by Bautista Agut confirms.
Oscar Otte
For a long time, Oscar Otte was outside the company of the 100 best players in the world. Following great results at the strongest tournaments, at the beginning of this season, he managed to enter the top 40 players in the world. Until the previous year, he mostly played Challengers and it seemed that he would never be among a top 100 players in his career. However, after improving his field game and backhand, which was his weak point for a long time, he started to record better results. Otte has a really great serve due to his 190 cm height, which is not surprising at all. He is a player who often goes to the net where he mostly wins points. He is not too dangerous on the return, therefore, it should not be expected him to have a large number of break opportunities.
However, since Wimbledon and switching to hard court, Oscar Otte has had an unnexpected significant drop in his form. He arrived here following his six defeats in the last seven matches but against Fucsovics in the first round, he played really well and deserved to reach the round od 16.
Felix Auger Aliassime vs. Oscar Otte Prediction
In this match, we expect both players to make a huge difference with their serve, and one match without a large number of break opportunities Felix Auger Aliassime is not in the best shape, while the tall Otte has a devastating serve, especially in these types of halls. On the other hand, Auger might have big problems with the return today.
Perhaps, Aliassime will have a huge advantage in longer exchanges but there is not going to be many such points today. Considering the fact that he will make a big difference with his serve and will be at an advantage in the exchanges, one should not be surprised if he does not allow a single break opportunity to the opponent. Therefore, we expect at least one extended set, which will be enough for the over.
Our prediction for this match is more than 21.5 and bookmaker bet365 pays with excellent odds of 1.72.
