Command Analysis
Stan Wawrinka
SwitzerlandCurrent form
Wawrinka has played only one match this season. He played it at the Australian Open - in the first round in Melbourne, the Swiss lost to Lorenzo Sonego. Last year, Stan had five wins and four losses on indoor hard courts.
Professional qualities
Wawrinka was known in his prime for his magnificent one-handed backhand, which played a key role in his three Grand Slam titles. It is widely considered one of the best shots in tennis history. However, as he has aged, as is often the case, he has become more prone to making mistakes in simple situations. His fitness has also suffered, and he is increasingly winded in long matches, especially in hot weather.
Current indicators in the tour
Wawrinka is a former world number three. The Swiss is currently ranked 156th in the world. He has won 23 trophies in his career, 16 of which are ATP titles. Stan won his last trophy in 2020, winning the clay court challenger in Prague.
Interesting facts for betting
Wawrinka losing streak now stands at three matches.
Arthur Cazaux
FranceCurrent form
Cazeau played his last match at the Australian Open. In the Australian major, Arthur beat Sebastian Baez in the first round, but then lost to Jacob Fearnley. Last season, the Frenchman had five wins in eight matches on indoor hard courts.
Professional qualities
Cazeau is one of the most promising young tennis players in France. Despite his young age, he already demonstrates a high level of play, typical of more experienced players. He is confident on the baseline, has a great approach to the net and has a powerful serve. However, inconsistency in results and weak performances on clay courts remain his problems. Over time, if he manages to improve his game on clay and become more consistent, he can significantly rise in the ATP rankings.
Current indicators in the tour
Cazeau is in the top 100 of the world rankings and is ranked 78th. Last year, Arthur won the Noumea Challenger, which was held on an open hard court. In total, the Frenchman has won six trophies in his career.
Interesting facts for betting
Cazeau has won nine of his last 12 matches against older players.

1.92Tip and bets
Cazeau has problems with his serve, and if he fails to establish balance on the first ball, Wawrinka will be able to take full advantage of this. Stan is experienced and feels good on fast surfaces, where he can fully take advantage of all the advantages of his powerful one-handed backhand. We bet on the Swiss in this matchup.
Our prediction is Wawrinka victory with odds of 2.75
Bet on total
Wawrinka is an older player, so it is unlikely that he will win the upcoming match easily. Cazeau has plenty of strength, but the young Frenchman has been suffering from inconsistent play lately, so he is also unlikely to win this match in two sets. We expect this match to last three sets.
The second betting tip is total over 23 games for odds of 1.96
Bet on the first set
Three of Cazeau last five matches have seen the first set go to fewer than 9.5 games, and we expect his upcoming match against Wawrinka to start with a low first set as well.
Betting Tip - total under 9.5 games in the first set for odds of 2.23
