LiontipsFrancisco Cerundolo - Kasper Ruud: prediction and bets for the match ATP Madrid
Command Analysis
Current form
In the quarterfinals of the Masters in Madrid, Cherundolo broke the resistance of Jakub Menshik 3-6, 7-6, 6-2. Francisco made seven aces, made two break points and lost one game on his serve against the Czech. The Argentine had previously passed Alexander Zverev, Francisco Comesana and Harold Mayo in the tournament bracket.
Professional qualities
At the beginning of his career, Cherundolo was characterized by excessive haste - he often acted on emotions and preferred to simply punch powerfully from the forehand in the hope of winners. Now Francisco is demonstrating smarter tennis - he competently builds draws and varies the pace due to cool strokes from both forehand and backhand.

Professional qualities
Ruud is rightfully considered one of the best specialists in the game on clay courts.

The Norwegian's main trump card is a powerful forehand.
