LiontipsHarry vs Klein. ATP Chengdu Match Prediction and Betting Tips
Command Analysis
Current form
Harry entered the tournament in Chengdu with a 7-match losing streak. The last time the Chilean won was in Rome, when he lost to Alexander Zverev in the Masters final. It seems that this failure broke him, because after that, Nicholas was not remembered for playing well.
In Chengdu, Harry was seeded third, so he missed the first round. He will only begin his journey now.
Professional qualities
Harry is a great player on clay, but his strong serve allows him to do the same on faster surfaces. The Latin American has a good forehand and moves around the court very well. However, he sometimes hits a bad streak, so he cannot demonstrate a consistent game for a long period of time.
Current indicators in the tour
In 2024, Harry has a negative balance of wins and losses - 16:18, but a successful performance in Rome has so far secured the Chilean a high position in the world rankings. At the moment, he is located in 28th place.
Interesting facts for betting
Harry is trying to break his losing streak. In the three previous matches he fought and even won one set. However, in the other two games the Chilean did much worse.
Current form
Klein is a Challenger resident, but sometimes he manages to get into higher-ranking competitions. For example, this season the Slovak played in Indian Wells and Gstaad. He did not achieve great success, but he earned some points.
As for the tournament in Chengdu, Lucas has already managed to get through the first round. In the opening match, he broke the resistance of Adam Walton.
Professional qualities
The Slovak's favorite surface is clay. Good actions on the back line allow Klein to feel comfortable on it. On faster surfaces, Lukas lacks the skills, so he has no success.
Current indicators in the tour
Oddly enough, he has 15 wins in 23 matches on open hard this season. He has been showing good play on this surface this season. However, in the world rankings, the Slovakian is outside the top 100 and ranks 127th.
Interesting facts for betting
Klein doesn't try very hard to change the course of a match. If he can't do anything, he doesn't fight back. For example, three of the Slovak's last five matches ended in defeat in two sets.

1.78Tip and bets
Harry will have a great opportunity to break his losing streak. In this fight, he has a fairly easy opponent, whom he has already beaten. In addition, the Slovak's recent results on open hard are not the best. We believe that the Latin American will have no problems.

Harry's last three matches have seen four tie-breaks, and given the players' serves, we think history will repeat itself.
