LiontipsRublev vs. Marozsán. ATP Hong Kong Match Prediction and Bets
Command Analysis
Current form
Rublev will play his first match of the new season. Last year, let us recall, Andrey had 27 wins and 13 losses on open hard courts. The Russian finished the last season playing at the Final Tournament, where he did not win a single victory in the group stage.
Professional qualities
Rublev is a tennis player with a powerful, penetrating forehand, which is his main weapon. His serve is also a threat to his opponents. Andrey moves around the court very well, actively working on difficult balls. However, despite all his technical advantages, his weak point is his mental preparedness. If his initial plan does not work, the Russian finds it difficult to find an alternative, which affects his game.

Rublev is the eighth racket in the world. Last year, Andrey won two trophies. He won in Hong Kong, where he beat Emil Ruusuvuori in the final. And he won the clay Masters in Madrid, where he defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime in the final. The Russian now has 16 ATP titles in his career.
