LiontipsPurcell vs Kokkinakis. ATP Washington Match Prediction and Bets
Command Analysis
Purcell has had a good last stretch of the season, reaching the final on grass in Eastbourne and then the quarter-finals in Atlanta. These results have left the Australian ranked 59th in the world.
It is worth adding that Max played in Washington twice, but he had no success there. In 2021, Purcell failed to qualify, and last season he lost in the first round to Zach Svaida.
Kokkinakis has had a poor grass court season. It seemed like the Australian would play well on that surface, but he won just 3 of 5 matches and reached the second round of Wimbledon.
Thanasi will try to compensate for all his failures with successful actions on hard. However, it will not be so easy to do this, since on this surface this season Kokkinakis' best result is considered to be reaching the quarterfinals of Los Cabos and Phoenix.

1.80Tip and bets
Kokkinakis has not played a single match since Wimbledon. It will be difficult for the Australian to get used to this surface. It is possible that because of this he will not be able to beat Purcell. Max has gained good form and performed well in Atlanta. We believe that he has a better chance of winning.
