LiontipsCameron Norrie vs Nick Kyrgios. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Atlanta (July 30, 2021).
Command Analysis
Norrie has been regularly visiting Atlanta lately. In 2017 and 2019, the Briton reached the semifinals of the tournament. But back then he was not in such good shape as he is now. Cameron has recently won the Los Cabos Open, played in the finals in Estoril, Lyon, and London. All these results allowed him to rise to 29th place in the ATP ranking.
Norrie's last appearance was at Los Cabos. Cameron didn't lose a single set there, beating Elias Ymer, Ernesto Escobedo, Taylor Fritz, and Brandon Nakashima in straight sets.
Kyrgios missed almost half of the season and appeared at Wimbledon after a five-month break. It seems that the lack of playing practice did not affect the Australian's performance. At the Major, he reached the third round. But he couldn't finish the match against Auger Aliassime due to injury.
In Atlanta, Nick has already played one match. In the first round, he outplayed Kevin Anderson. Kyrgios defeated the South African tennis player with a score of 7-6, 6-3.

Tip and bets
Recently, Norrie has gained excellent form. The Briton mostly wins, and even if he loses, he always puts up a fight. For example, Cameron won a set from Matteo Berrettini and Roger Federer. In 2018, Norrie beat Kyrgios in Atlanta. So we think he will be a difficult opponent for Kyrgios.
Our prediction - handicap (+2) games to Cameron Norrie.
The last time Norrie lost without winning a set was at Roland Garros in the match against the King of Clay, Rafael Nadal. But hard is considered to be a more comfortable surface for the Briton, so we expect him to at least win a set.
Second wager - total over 22.5 games.
