Casper Ruud vs Taro Daniel Prediction and Betting Tips (28.07.2024)

Command Analysis

Casper Ruud

Norway

Ruud has once again confirmed his status as a player who performs well on clay. This season, he has won two tournaments on this surface - in Geneva and Barcelona. In total, Casper has won 21 matches on clay in 2024. He has only lost six matches.

However, Ruud is not in the best playing shape heading into the Olympics. At his last tournament, which took place in Bastad, the Norwegian lost to Thiago Monteiro in the first round.

Taro Daniel

Japan

Daniel is exactly the kind of tennis player who performs successfully on clay. However, this season he hasn't been successful on clay. For example, in 2024 Taro won 5 out of 15 matches on clay.

The Japanese player lost his last matches on this surface. In Salzburg he lost to the little-known Frenchman Jacques, and in Bastad to Timofey Skatov.

Tip and bets

2.00Daniel with a handicap (+5.5)

Bookmakers have Ruud as a big favourite, but we disagree. Daniel has always performed well on clay, and the Norwegian is not in his best form at the moment. The Scandinavian has never beaten the Japanese by more than five games. We doubt that he will be able to do so now.

Our prediction is Daniel with a handicap of (+5.5) games for 2.00 in BC Fonbet
