LiontipsSafiullin - Husler. Forecast and bets for the ATP Bratislava match
Command Analysis
Current form
Safiullin beat Milos Karol (7-6, 7-6) in the first round of the Bratislava Challenger. Roman hit one ace in the match against the Slovak, did not realize a single break point and did not lose a single game on his serve. The Russian has one win in three matches indoors this season.
Professional qualities
Safiullin plays tactically competent and varied tennis, adapting his style to specific opponents. One of his key strengths is a powerful and stable first serve, which often puts opponents in a difficult position. On the baseline, Roman prefers to play the rising ball, setting a high tempo, but the lack of topspin sometimes prevents him from controlling the ball, which leads to a large number of unforced errors.
Current indicators in the tour
Safiullin is currently ranked 59th in the world. This season, Roman has one trophy to his credit - he won the challenger in Cary, thus winning his 24th career title.
Interesting facts for betting
Safiullin has not yet played any indoor low-scoring matches this season.
Current form
Hüsler secured a win over Hynek Barton (6-2, 6-4) in the first round of the Bratislava Challenger. During the match, Marc-Andre served four aces, converted four break points and lost one game on his serve. For the Swiss, this was his ninth win on indoor hard courts this season, with five losses.
Professional qualities
Hüsler is known for his active style of play, supported by a good serve. As a left-hander, he can create additional difficulties for his opponents due to unusual angles and trajectories. However, his straightforward style, without significant tactical variations, often becomes convenient for opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Huesler was once in the top 50 of the world rankings, but now the Swiss tennis player is outside the top 100 - in 148th place. This season, Marc-Andre added to his trophy collection by winning the challenger in Grodzisk Mazowiecki.
