LiontipsVukic vs Coric. ATP Chengdu Match Prediction and Betting
Command Analysis
Current form
Vukic maintains his position in the world rankings and does not fall outside the top 100. All this became possible thanks to the successful actions of the Australian representative on grass. In the summer, Aleksandar reached the semi-finals of the competition in Eastbourne.
However, Vukic's recent results cannot be called successful. At the US Open, for example, he hung up his racket in the first round, losing in three sets to Max Purcell.
Professional qualities
Vukic has a strong serve and a powerful forehand in his arsenal. However, his actions cannot be called special. There is nothing outstanding in the Australian's game, so it is quite problematic for him to rise into the top 50 of the ATP rankings.
Current indicators in the tour
Vukic has a negative win-loss record this season. In 2024, the Australian won 23 fights and lost 31. Aleksandar is ranked 92nd in the world.
Interesting facts for betting
All of Vukic's recent matches have been a struggle. The Australian's four previous matches have gone three games. He is too unstable right now to finish the battles quickly.
Current form
Coric is clearly not ready for the season. In 2024, the Croatian representative failed to show any results. His best competition was in Montpellier, where he reached the final, but this happened at the beginning of the season.
Borna played his last match at the US Open. He didn't do anything special at that Major. The Croatian lost to Adrian Mannarino in the first round.
Professional qualities
Coric can play a more interesting game than Vukic. At one time, the Croatian was the 12th racket in the world. He has a wider range of shots and more imagination in rallies. However, now he is not in the best playing form.
Current indicators in the tour
Coric risks falling out of the top 100 in the world rankings. He is currently ranked 97th. The Croatian has lost 10 of 17 matches on open hard courts this season.
Interesting facts for betting
Coric starts his matches well, but he does not last long. In 4 of the last 5 matches, Borna won the opening set. It is quite possible that he will try to do the same again.
Trends
Total over 2.5 sets bet
In 3 of Coric's last 5 matches there have been set exchanges
1.60Bet 1st set: total under 9.5 games
In 3 of Coric's last 5 matches, the first set did not go past 9 games
1.79Tip and bets
Vukic is the favorite of the match, but he is not in a condition to crush Vukic. The Croatian looks unconvincing and suffers failures too often. At the very least, the Australian is obliged to impose a fight on Borna due to his serve. Considering all of the above, we suggest giving preference to Aleksandar.
Our prediction is Vukic with a handicap of (+2.5) games for 1.72
Bet on total
Vukic has been playing too many 3-set matches lately. Given the players' inconsistency, we expect something similar to happen now.
Betting Tip - total over 22.5 games for 1.77
Tiebreak bet
Despite Vukic's strong serve, tiebreaks are rare in his matches, and we expect that to be the case against Coric as well.
Betting Tip - tie-break - no for 1.85
