LiontipsStefanos Tsitsipas vs Ilya Ivashka. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Rotterdam (February 10, 2022).
Command Analysis
Stefanos Tsitsipasgot off to a rough start at the current Rotterdam Open. In the opening match, the Greek player went against Alejandro Davidovich-Fokina, who simply refused to yield. Eventually, Tsitsipas won in three sets (7-6, 6-7, 6-4), but he had to play two tie-breaks. During the match, Tsitsipas took a time-out for health reasons - he might be experiencing some problems with his elbow again, or possibly got a different injury.
Ilya Ivashka was injured at the beginning of the year and started his tour only last week. He has played two matches so far. The Belarusian athlete lost to Mackenzie McDonald in straight sets in the first round of the tournament in Montpellier (3-6, 6-7), and recorded the first win of the season in the opening round of the Rotterdam Open. Ivashka celebrated success over Lloyd Harris (6-2, 6-3) and will be looking to put up a fight against the World №4.
