LiontipsHijikata - Eubanks: prediction and bets on the ATP Houston match
Command Analysis
Current form
Hijikata has yet to show any outstanding results this season. Only at the tournament in Adelaide did he reach the quarterfinals. In the rest of the competition, the representative of Australia was not remembered for anything and, as a rule, was eliminated in the second round.
Before the Houston tournament, Hijikata managed to play in Miami. In Florida, Rinkie beat Hamad Medjedovic in three sets, but then lost to Novak Djokovic without much resistance.
Professional qualities
Hijikata is a challenger-level player who sometimes manages to jump into the top hundred of the rankings. He has a good serve, as well as punches with both hands. One of Rinka's weaknesses is his dislike of prolonged backline sweepstakes.

Thanks to his successful challenger game, Hijikata got into the top 100 of the world ranking. He is currently ranked 82nd.
Interesting facts for betting
Hijikata competed twice in Houston and did not go beyond the second round. He lost to Brandon Nakashima here last season.
