LiontipsAlexander Bublik vs Marcos Giron. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Cincinnati (August 17, 2021).
Command Analysis
Bublik has won only one of his last five matches. However, it is worth mentioning, that Bublik was losing mainly to very strong opponents, and not without a fight. The representative of Kazakhstan comes to Cincinnati for the second time in his career. During his debut in 2019, he couldn't pass the qualifying rounds, losing to J.J. Wolf in two sets (3-6, 3-6). We hope that this time, Bublik will deliver his best performance here.
Giron feels very confident on hard courts, and it is definitely a challenge to play against him on this surface. Giron has already played two matches in Cincinnati within the current competition. He passed J.J. Wolf (6-3, 6-3), and Dominik Koepfer (7-6, 6-4) in the qualifying rounds. Giron is now in good shape and he is determined to give his best effort at the home tournament.
