LiontipsFilip Krajinovic vs Pablo Carreno Busta. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Cup (January 5, 2022).
Command Analysis
Filip Krajinovic had two difficult matches at the current ATP Cup. In his opener, the Serbian tennis player had some problems against the little-known Norwegian Viktor Durasovic in the second set (6-2, 7-5). He then spent a lot of energy to defeat the uncompromising Chilean Alejandro Tabilo (6-4, 3-6, 7-6). In general, Krajinovic's game hasn't changed: he is good at serves and can attack, but lacks consistency in his strokes.
Pablo Carreno Busta had a tough opening match at the ATP Cup, but he still got the upper hand over Alejandro Tabilo in two long sets (6-4, 7-6). The Spaniard looked quite good: he made four breaks and won 74 percent of the first serves. In the second round of the group stage, Carreno Busta confidently defeated Viktor Durasovic in two straight sets (6-3, 6-3).
