Flavio Cobolli - Alex De Minaur

ATP - SINGLES: Vienna (Austria)

Cobolli's handicap with such odds was truly surprising and I believe that it will not last for long. The Australian is still not in his best condition after his injury and it was clearly seen in his movement during his first matches. He had problems with playing short shots at the net even before his match against Carballes Baena, which Gaston took advantage of. Of course, his form is improving, but I am not highly rating his match against Struff, who is also trying to come back after an injury.

Cobolli, on the other hand, looked very confident against weaker Fokina, especially with his serves. He had a high percentage of first serves and controlled the game well afterwards. I expect a very close match between these two players, and perhaps even a victory for Italian Peru.
