LiontipsKaren Khachanov vs Ugo Humbert. Prediction and Betting Tips for Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 (July 29, 2021).
Command Analysis
Khachanov still lacks stability in his game. That is why he only won one out of his three matches at the Olympics with a comfortable score. In the second round, the Russian got a confident victory over James Duckworth (7-5, 6-1). Two other matches were very close: in his opener, Karen defeated Yoshihito Nishioka in three sets (3-6, 6-1, 6-2), and in the Round of 16 he prevailed over Diego Schwartzman (6-1, 2- 6, 6-1).
Humbert doesn't have a perfect run at the Tokyo Olympics either. But he created probably the biggest sensation of the tournament: in the Round of 16, he ousted the World №4 Stefanos Tsitsipas, who was considered one of the main contenders for the Olympic gold medal. Ugo outplayed the Greek in three sets (2-6, 7-6, 6-2). In two other matches, Humbert defeated Pablo Andujar (7-3, 6-1) and Miomir Kecmanovic (4-6, 7-6, 7-5).
