LiontipsAndrei Rublev vs Nikoloz Basilashvili. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Halle (June 19, 2021).
Command Analysis
It seems that Rublev has found his game again after a bad run. In Halle, the Russian demonstrates a really excellent game. So far he has not lost a single set here, consequently beating Karen Khachanov (6-3, 7-6), Jordan Thompson (6-4, 6-4), and Philip Kohlschreiber (7-6, 6-2). Andrei has already shown good results at this tournament. For example, in 2017, he reached the quarterfinals in Halle. Back then Rublev lost to Khachanov in three sets. But this season he managed to get convincing revenge.
This season Basilashvili is inconsistent: he alternates good performances with absolute failures. If the Georgian gains momentum, it is very difficult to stop him. For example, in Doha and Munich Niko was on fire, and he won both of those tournaments. It looks like the Halle Open can become another successful tournament for the Georgian player. Basilashvili started with qualification matches and easily defeated Rudi Molleker (7-6, 7-6) and Yannick Hanfmann (7-6, 6-4). He kept winning and defeated Arthur Rinderknech (6-2, 7-5), Gilles Simon (6-1, 3-6, 6-4), and Lloyd Harris (6-4, 7-6).
Tip and bets
Rublev is very confidently moving towards the final. He beat all his opponents in two sets, and it is possible that he will cope with Basilashvili, too. The Georgian has so far been lucky with opponents, but the Russian is head and shoulders above them all.
