LiontipsIlya ivashka vs Marin Cilic. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Winston-Salem (August 24, 2021).
Command Analysis
Ivashka is in good shape at the moment. However, last week the Belarusian tennis player couldn't demonstrate his full potential at the tournament in Cincinnati. He gets this chance in Winston-Salem. In the first round, Ivashka defeated the experienced Italian Andreas Seppi in two sets (6-4, 6-4). Ivashla hit seven aces and won two break points in the match.
Cilic feels confident on hard courts, so we expect him to perform well in Winston-Salem. However, at the previous tournaments on this surface, Cilic didn't get a chance to shine: he was eliminated in the starting rounds against quite strong opponents. In Toronto, Cilic lost in three sets to Casper Ruud (3-6, 6-3, 3-6), and in Cincinnati, he lost to Andrei Rublev (7-5, 3-6, 1-6).
