LiontipsNikoloz Basilashvili vs Roberto Carballes Baena. Prediction and Betting Tips for Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 (July 24, 2021).
Command Analysis
Basilashvili performs extremely unstably this season. However, this is not news: Nikoloz may lack stability, but there is no doubt that he will give his best to represent his country at the Tokyo Olympics. The Georgian tennis player has always been able to focus on specific tournaments. For example, Basilashvili won the tournament in Dubai this season when no one expected that from him, beating the legendary Swiss Roger Federer (3-6, 6-1, 7-5) in one of his matches.
Carballes Baena is now in good shape, but, frankly, we do not expect a lot from him at the Tokyo Olympics. The Spanish tennis player is a clay court specialist, and he doesn't show the same level of tennis on hard. Carballes Baena was included in the Spain Olympic team because many leaders of the national team could not come to Tokyo due to various circumstances.
