H. Laaksonen - R. Berankis

Ottignies challenger tournament on hard surface

Two experienced tennis players meet in the first round H. Laaksonen 187 ATP against Berankis 171 ATP. Berankis plays a lot of matches this season and this is already his 3rd tournament this year, and in both tournaments until then, Berankis managed in the first round. Berankis changed coaches in the middle of last season and it finally seems to be paying off as he is back to the form he was in at the peak of his career. Laaksonen is also in the 3rd tournament, but in the first tournament Laaksonen lost even in the first qualifying match, and the OA Swiss also fell in the 2nd round, so the Swiss does not shine this year and Berankis seems more capable, and the only meeting between them was won by Lithuania 2-0. Berankis has been playing well against good players throughout his career and I think Ryčka will win here.
