LiontipsGasquet vs Emery. Prediction and bets on the ATP Orleans match
Command Analysis
Current form
Gasquet played in the Saint-Tropez Challenger last week, where he hung up his racket after the second round, losing to Matteo Martino. Richard has only played two indoor hard court matches this season, and lost both.
Professional qualities
Despite the loss of his former speed, Gasquet remains one of the most technical players on tour. His one-handed backhand is his calling card, and his tactical mastery allows him to adapt to any surface, including indoor hard, on which the French veteran has won seven trophies in his career.
Current indicators in the tour
Gasquet was once ranked in the top 10 in the world at seventh place, but the French veteran is now ranked 120th. This season, Richard has one trophy to his credit - he won the Challenger in Cassis in early September, thus winning 29 trophies in his career.
Interesting facts for betting
Gasquet is defending last year's semi-final on the courts of Orleans.
Current form
Emery played his last match in early September. He took part in the tournament in Rennes, where he failed to overcome the starting circle, losing to Luc Pouille. On indoor hard courts, Calvin has five wins and six losses this season.
Professional qualities
Emery's height of 191 centimeters gives him a significant advantage on the court - a powerful serve, which often becomes his main asset in matches. It is the serve that allows the Frenchman to dictate his terms on the tennis court. Despite the fact that Kelvin feels most comfortable on clay surfaces, he also performs successfully on other surfaces. The final at the indoor tournament in Blois this season is a clear confirmation of this. Such versatility makes him a dangerous opponent for any tennis player.
Current indicators in the tour
Emery is ranked 238th in the world. This season, Kelvin played in two finals - he reached the decisive matches with Blois and at the Challenger in Tampere. During his career, the 29-year-old Frenchman has won nine trophies.
Interesting facts for betting
Emery's last seven matches have ended in straight sets.

1.34Tip and bets
This season's statistics do not speak in favor of Gasquet, who has lost both of his indoor matches this season. So Emery will definitely have a chance to win at least one of the games. We bet that Kelvey will be able to cling to a positive handicap in this match.
Our prediction is Emery's victory with a handicap of (+4) games at odds of 1.74
Bet on total
We expect a fight in this pair. Experience is definitely on Gasquet's side here, but Emery, thanks to his serve and active play on the return, is capable of creating serious problems for Richard.
The second betting tip is total over 22 games for odds of 1.85
Bet on the first set
Three of Emery's last five matches have seen the first set go to fewer than 9.5 games. We expect the upcoming matchup between Calvin and Gasquet to also start with a low-scoring first set.
Betting Tip - total under 9.5 games in the first set for odds of 2.32
