2.32Tip and bets
Last week, Auger-Aliassime lost to Kobolli in two sets, quite unexpectedly, without a fight. There are questions about Felix's playing condition. We believe that the upcoming match will not be easy for him and will most likely be a struggle.
Our prediction is a victory for Kovacevic with a handicap of (+4) games at odds of 1.74

Auger-Aliassime seems to be out of shape at the moment. The Paris Olympics must have taken a lot out of Felix. We believe that the upcoming match will be a struggle and will most likely be played in three sets.

Four of Kovacevic's last five matches have seen more than 9.5 games played in the first set. Alexander's upcoming match against Auger-Aliassime will likely also start with a "top" first set.
