LiontipsJan-Lennard Struff vs Andrey Rublev. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Rome (May 12, 2021).
Command Analysis
Struff seems to have overcome the crisis that he had at the beginning of the season. The German player is very comfortable on clay. Most recently Jan-Lennard played in the final of the home tournament in Munich, and he shouldn't be underestimated.
In the first round of the current Masters in Rome, the German tennis player beat Aljaz Bedene - it took Struff only two sets to defeat the Slovenian athlete (6-3, 6-1).
Last week Rublevgave quite a weak performance in Madrid. The Russian was eliminated in the second round of the tournament, where he lost to John Isner (6-7, 6-3, 6-7).
We believe that at the current Masters in Rome Andrei will try to give his best and achieve more than he did in Madrid. We believe Rublev has everything he needs for that, he is demonstrating some good tennis this season.

Tip and bets
It seems that Rublev has lost momentum, and we don't expect the Russian to crush the opponent in the upcoming match. Struff himself is now in good form and we don't think he plans on just giving away the match. We believe that the German will give a fight to Andrei, and suggest betting on the total games.
Our prediction is total over 20 games
Rublev is the favorite, but lately, Andrey has been less convincing than usual. Therefore, Struff will certainly have a chance to win at least a set. The German has now gained good speed, he is in perfect form, so we think a bet on his victory will play.
Second prediction - Struff to win with a handicap (+5) games
