LiontipsMickelsen vs Yunchaokete. Prediction and bets on the ATP Metz match
Command Analysis
Current form
Mickelsen was stronger than Richard Gasquet (6-7, 7-6, 7-6) in the second round of the competition in Metz. Alex hit 13 aces, converted one break point and lost one game on his serve during the match against the Frenchman. For the American, this was the fourth victory in seven indoor games this season.
Professional qualities
Michelsen success is not only due to his strong serve and forehand, but also his excellent return and stable two-handed backhand. His serve is also good, especially in terms of first ball speed, and his forehand is stable enough to successfully use the net after a good put-in, which is especially effective on indoor courts.
Current indicators in the tour
Mickelsen has two finals under his belt this season. He reached the final at the grass court tournament in Newport and the open hard court tournament in Winston-Salem. Alex is currently ranked 44th in the world.
Interesting facts for betting
Mickelsen has won 7 of his last 10 matches where he was the favourite.
Current form
Yunchaokete beat Jesper De Jong (6-4, 7-6) in the second round of the tournament in Metz. Bu, in the confrontation with the representative of the Netherlands, served seven aces, converted one break point and did not lose a single game on his serve.
Professional qualities
Bu relies on a powerful serve, playing in an aggressive style. In rallies, he prefers to win with active strikes, without waiting for mistakes from his opponent. However, he rarely goes to the net without using the potential of the "serve-forehand" combination on fast surfaces.
Current indicators in the tour
Yunchaokete has won two trophies this season. The 22-year-old Chinese player successfully played at the hard challengers, which were held in Wuxi and Granby. He now has nine trophies won in his career. Bu is ranked 72nd in the world.
