LiontipsVirtanen — Korda. Forecast and bets for the ATP Marseille match
Command Analysis
Current form
Virtanen has not won a single victory in the new season. At the start, he lost at the Australian Open and at the Indore Challenger in Kemper. Another match was played in the Davis Cup, where Otto lost to Lucas Neumeier.
Professional qualities
Virtanen is a typical representative of attacking tennis on fast courts. The Finn has achieved his main successes in neutral conditions, where he feels most comfortable. Having trained on indoor courts since childhood, he is perfectly adapted to this surface. His main trump cards are a powerful first serve, a killer forehand and high movement speed. If necessary, Otto confidently goes to the net and completes the draws with sharp strokes from the summer.
Current indicators in the tour
Virtanen is the 97th racket of the world. The 23-year-old Finnish tennis player has won ten titles in his career. Last season, on indoor hard court, he won the challengers held in Pau, Lugano and Brest.
Interesting facts for betting
Virtanen has won at least one set in 3 of the last 5 matches from the top 30 of the world ranking.
Current form
Korda hasn't had a single official fight since the Australian Open. At the Australian major, Sebastian sheathed his racket in the second round, losing to Alexander Vukic. The American has three wins and two losses this season.
Professional qualities
In the current competition, even players outside the top 20 don't have obvious weaknesses. Korda is a vivid confirmation of this. He has an excellent serve, a stable forehand and a strong backhand in his arsenal, which allows him to successfully launch a counterattack. The American is constantly moving around the court, knows how to vary the pace, but sometimes he lacks psychological stability at crucial moments of matches.
Current indicators in the tour
Korda is the 22nd racket of the world. Last season, Sebastian won a home tournament in Washington, D.C., which was held on an open hard court. In total, the 24-year-old American has won four titles in his career, two of which are ATP categories.
Interesting facts for betting
The last three matches with Korda's participation turned out to be "riding".
