LiontipsCasper Ruud vs Roberto Bautista Agut. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Cup (January 3, 2022).
Command Analysis
In his ATP Cup opener, Casper Ruud easily defeated Dusan Lajovic in two straight sets (6-3, 7-5). This was a predictable victory, but in the second set, the Norwegian tennis player lost focus for a bit and almost allowed the opponent to get the upper hand.
Ruud came to Australia in good spirits and on top form, and he will definitely strive to get his team into the playoffs.
Roberto Bautista Agut wasn't very successful last season and will be looking to improve his performance in the new year. Judging by his opening match at the ATP Cup, in which Roberto cruised to victory over the clay court specialist Christian Garin (6-0, 6-3), the Spaniard is in excellent shape. We expect Bautista Agut to deliver solid results at this tournament.
Tip and bets
The only match between these two tennis players ended in two sets. We expect the upcoming fixture to end quickly, too. The sides will try to not spend too much energy before the Australian Open, so whoever wins the first set will probably win the match.
Our prediction - total under 23 games
In general, Ruud seems the stronger side in this fixture. The Norwegian is on top form, and should avenge his defeat to Bautista Agut four years ago in Munich.
Second wager - Ruud to win
