Andrey Rublev

Rublev played a terrific match against Tsitsipas, winning in straight sets 6-3 7-6. He hit a total of thirty four winners, and made only fourteen unforced errors. His strategy of coming in and finishing points off worked like a dream too. The kind of form Rublev is in, it’s very easy to dismiss Fucsovics. But do it at your own peril.

Fucsovics used his world class backhand slice to great effect in the match against Coric. Another aspect of his game that stood out was his power on the forehand side. Rublev vs Fucsovics will be a good game of tennis, but Rublev will edge it. 

Match Prediction: Andrey Rublev will beat Márton Fucsovics in three sets.
