LiontipsOpelka vs Evseev. Betting Tip and bets on the ATP match Hangzhou
Command Analysis
Current form
Opelka represented the U.S. team quite well at the Davis Cup last week, winning two matches against Christian Garin and Henry Squier. On outdoor hard courts, Reilly has a negative record this season, winning two and losing five.
Professional qualities
Without a doubt, Opelka's main weapon is his powerful serve, which is not surprising given his height of 211 centimeters. The American's strategy is to put the ball into play powerfully and finish the rally in two or three attacking strokes. However, the game on the return is a different story: here Reilly has to move more on the baseline, which leads to technical errors and problems with control of the ball, especially due to the low bounce.
Current indicators in the tour
Opelka missed quite a bit of time due to a hand injury, which is why he is currently ranked 308th in the world, although the 27-year-old American was once in the top 20. This season, Reilly has only one good result - the semi-final in Newport.
Interesting facts for betting
Opelka has lost five of seven matches on outdoor hard courts this season.
Current form
Evseev last took to the court in an official match in early September. Then he took part in the challenger in Istanbul, where he lost to Gijs Bruwer in the first round. On open hard courts this season, Denis has 11 wins and ten losses.
Professional qualities
Evseev focuses on his serve game. His powerful and consistent first serve allows him to effectively get to the net and shorten rallies. However, Denis has a more difficult time on the baseline, as he lacks penetration. He prefers flat shots on the rising ball and rarely uses topspin. A problematic aspect of Evseev's game is his backhand, where he often makes mistakes, which reduces his consistency on the court.
Current indicators in the tour
Yevseyev is ranked 207th in the world. Among the more or less good results, one can highlight the 31-year-old representative of Kazakhstan's reaching the semi-finals of tournaments in Tenerife and Oeiras.
Interesting facts for betting
In his last seven matches, Yevseyev has won only one victory.

1.88Tip and bets
The only question in this pair is whether Yevseyev will be able to cope with Opelka's powerful serve? We think he will. After all, Reilly has looked weak on hard courts this season, and therefore we expect Denis to create problems for the American in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is Yevseyev's victory with a handicap of (+4) games for a coefficient of 2.01
Bet on total
The match will most likely go beyond two sets. Opelka serves well, and Evseev is also unlikely to be inferior to the American in this component. We believe that this meeting will be "top-heavy".
The second betting tip is total over 22 games for odds of 1.81
Bet on the first set
In three of Yevseyev's last five matches, the first set was played with fewer than 9.5 games. We expect that the upcoming meeting between Denis and Opelka will also start with a "low" first set.
Betting Tip - total under 9.5 games in the first set for odds of 1.89
