LiontipsRune vs Alcaraz. Six Kings Slam Exhibition Match Prediction and Betting Tips
Command Analysis
Current form
This season, Rune has 22 wins and 11 losses on outdoor hard courts. At the recent Masters in Shanghai, Holger managed to reach the fourth round, where he lost to Taylor Fritz.
Professional qualities
Rune started his career as a clay court specialist, but over time the Dane has improved his game on all types of surfaces, while maintaining his strengths: a powerful serve, excellent movement around the court and confident shots from both sides. At one stage, it seemed that Holger would become part of the new "Big Three", but despite a promising start, he has not yet reached that level.
Current indicators in the tour
Rune had a good start to the year, reaching the final in Brisbane straight away. However, it turned out to be Holger only final of the season. The former world number four is currently ranked 14th in the world.
Interesting facts for betting
Rune has lost his last 11 matches against opponents from the top 5 of the world rankings.
Current form
Alcaraz recently left the Shanghai Masters in the quarterfinals, where he lost to Tomas Machac. Carlos has 22 wins and five losses on open hard courts this year.
Professional qualities

Alcaraz has virtually no weak points. Previously, he lacked the ability to properly distribute his strength during the season, but with age he learned to prioritize and play his best tennis at the right moment.

Alcaraz is the second-ranked player in the world. This season, Carlos won Wimbledon and Roland Garros. He also won the Masters in Indian Wells and the tournament in Beijing. He now has 17 trophies won in his career.
