LiontipsHanfmann vs Gasquet. ATP Brisbane Match Prediction and Betting Tips
Command Analysis
Current form
Hanfmann beat Jacob Bradshaw in straight sets (6-4, 6-2) in the first round of qualifying at the Brisbane tournament. In the match against the Australian, Yannick made one ace, converted three break points and lost one game on his serve.
Professional qualities
Hanfmann is a versatile player who is skilled at using slices and drop shots. He is accurate on the return and consistent in rallies, which makes him particularly effective on clay. On hard, he lacks a bit of punch and consistency on the serve, although at six-foot-two, his delivery could be improved.
Current indicators in the tour
Hanfmann is in the top 100 of the world rankings and is currently ranked 96th. Last season, Yannick showed special results - he has negative statistics. The last time the German won the title was in 2020 - then he won the competition in Todi.
Interesting facts for betting
Hanfmann has only one win in his last seven matches.
Current form
Gasquet started the qualifying round of the tournament in Brisbane with a victory over Derek Pham (6-1, 6-2). Richard hit three aces in the match against the Australian, converted five break points and lost one game on his serve.
Professional qualities
Gasquet has never been known for his powerful serve or powerful shots from both sides. However, his racket skills and high tennis IQ compensate for these shortcomings with his precise shot placement. In the twilight of his career, Richard is no longer fast and durable enough to compete on equal terms with younger players, but he is still capable of playing at a high level.
Current indicators in the tour
Gasquet, at 38, managed to finish the past season with a trophy. In September, he won the Challenger in Cassis. For the French veteran, this was the 29th title in his career. In the world rankings, Richard is currently in 129th place.

Gasquet is not as fast as he used to be. After all, the years take their toll. Of course, the French veteran is still capable of showing quality tennis, but in the upcoming match we believe that it will be extremely difficult for him to cope with Hanfmann attacking game.
