LiontipsMarco Cecchinato vs Dominik Koepfer. Predictions and Betting Tips for ATP Winston-Salem
Command Analysis
Cecchinato impressed everyone with his performance in the previous match, in which he beat Tennys Sandgren (6:4, 6:4). It was the first victory for the Italian player on hard surface during this season. It is a huge achievement, because Cecchinato recorded only two victories in two years on that surface.
We should note that Cecchinato is a regular guest here, at Winston-Salem. But he never went past the second round. For example, 2019 he was beaten by John Millman after the victory over Alexander Bublik.
Koepfer plays regularly on hard recently. He played eight matches on that surface during the last month. He performed successfully at the Olympic Games in Tokyo, where he reached the third round. In Japan Koepfer beat Facundo Bagnis and Max Purcell.
Koepfer's most recent tournament was at Cincinnati. He managed to break the first round barrier there, beating Jan-Lennard Struff (7:6, 5:7, 6:3). But in the second match he was beaten by Pablo Carreno Busta (4:6, 2:6).
