LiontipsCameron Norrie vs Karen Khachanov. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP French Open (May 27, 2022).
Command Analysis
Cameron Norrie won the tournament in Lyon just before the start of Roland Garros. Then, in the opening round of the current tournament, the Briton easily closed Manuel Guinard (7-5, 6-2, 6-0) before defeating Jason Kubler in three sets (6-3, 6-4, 6-3) in the second round. Last year, Norrie lost in the third round of the French Open - he was unlucky to face Nadal at an early stage on the tournament (3-6, 3-6, 3-6).
Karen Khachanov did really well on hard courts at the beginning of the year, but he hasn't been very impressive on clay courts. His only success on clay in 2022 so far was reaching the semifinals in Belgrade. At the current tournament, Khachanov defeated Nuno Borges (6-3, 2-6, 6-4, 6-4) in the opening round before celebrating success over Hugo Dellien (4-6, 6-4, 7-6, 6-3).
