LiontipsO'Connell — Draper forecast and bets for the Doha ATP match
Command Analysis
Current form
O'Connell beat Hadi Habib in two tiebreaks in the first round of the Doha tournament. During the match, Christopher made 12 aces, made one break point and lost one game on his serve. The Australian has four wins and three losses this season.
Professional qualities
O'Connell is a tennis player whose full potential has not been reached due to instability. He knows how to act aggressively, combining a good serve with a confident game at the net. His one-handed backhand and clippings help to diversify the draws, but the Australian often faces problems: injuries and lack of mental fortitude do not allow him to go beyond the level of the challengers.
Current indicators in the tour
O'Connell is currently ranked 82nd in the world rankings. Last season Christopher won the challenger in Guangzhou. It was the 15th title of his career for him.
Interesting facts for betting
In 6 of O'Connell's last 7 matches, at least one tie-break was played.
Current form
Draper defeated Alexei Popyrin (6-2, 7-6) in two sets in the first round of the Doha tournament. Jack made eight aces in the confrontation with the Australian, made two break points and did not lose a single game on his serve. It was the Briton's fourth win this season in five matches.
Professional qualities
Draper stands out for his powerful serve and reliable two-handed backhand. In addition, he has a combative personality and is able to handle pressure at critical moments. However, his straightforward playing style makes him predictable. He can put pressure on the average players with his might, but with top opponents he lacks flexibility and innovative solutions.
Current indicators in the tour
Draper won the tournaments in Stuttgart and Vienna last season. In total, the British tennis player has 14 trophies during his career. Jack is currently in 16th place in the world ranking.
Interesting facts for betting
Draper has scored eight wins in his last ten matches.

In 3 of O'Connell's last 5 matches, events on the court developed according to this scenario
2.24Tip and bets
Draper is left-handed, which is extremely inconvenient for tennis players with a one-handed backhand. Especially since O'Connell is unstable with backhands. By and large, it's enough for Jack to load Christopher's left side to defeat the Australian. Most likely, the Briton will act like this in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is that Draper will win with a handicap of (-4) games by a factor of 1.76
Bet on the total
The last face-to-face match between the tennis players turned out to be a "horse race". However, in the upcoming confrontation between O'Connell and Draper, we expect that everything will end pretty quickly. Jack is in better shape than the Australian right now, so he will most likely be able to win this match in two games.
The second forecast is a total of less than 22 games for a coefficient of 1.72
Bet on the first set
In three of Draper's last five matches, more than 9.5 games were played in the first set. We believe that the upcoming match against O'Connell will also begin with the "riding" of the first game.
The forecast is a total of more than 9.5 games in the first set for a coefficient of 1.87
