Bolt vs Isner: can Alex cope with John's power serve?
On July 23, Alex Bolt takes on John Isner in the Los Cabos quarterfinals. Who will win in the upcoming match? Our answer is in the prediction below.

Command Analysis

Alex Bolt

Bolt is doing great at the current tournament in Los Cabos. So far, the Australian tennis player had difficulties only in the first-round match against Andreas Seppi, but Alex managed to make a comeback after losing the first set and defeated the Italian veteran in three sets with a score of 0-6, 6-2, 6-3. In the second round, Bolt quite easily outplayed Emilio Gomez in two sets (6-3, 6-1). In total, this season Alex won five matches on hard and lost two.

John Isner

Isner is finally playing on his favourite surface. John has played most matches in his career on hard. However, in the first round of the current tournament in Los Cabos, Isner had some minor difficulties. The American needed three sets to defeat Evgeny Donskoy (7-5, 3-6, 7-6). Traditionally, Isner's game is built around his powerful serve - in the match against Donskoy, John hit 25 aces.
Trends
СтавкаTie-break - yes
Isner has played 6 tie-breaks in the last 5 matches.

Ставка1st set: total under 9.5
Bolt has played under 9.5 games in the 1st set in 4 of his last 5 matches.

Tip and bets
There is certainly a difference in class between these tennis players, but at the moment it is insignificant. Isner is not in his top form at the moment, and this is the time to outplay him. We believe that Bolt will be able to put up a fight, just like Donskoy did in the recent match.
Our prediction - Bolt to win with a handicap (+3)
Traditionally, matches with Isner's participation are quite long, like, for example, the last three of his matches. We suppose that will not change today.
Second wager - total over 23 games
