Match of good deglingos!

Direct value on the number of cable bursts in this match! I'm going to watch this with delight...

Let's start with Aslan Karatsev. The Russian is capable of anything. We nicknamed him Jean-Michel Erratique at Tennis Metrics. He has just proven it again in Geneva against Cobolli with 5 break points converted out of 15 opportunities for the Italian. That's way, way too much for a guy of Karatsev's caliber. Let's not forget that he is just coming back from an injury (knee surgery at the beginning of January), and that, apart from at altitude, land is logically not his best surface. Afterwards when he is inside, the surface matters much less, but what is the probability? Not super big for me, but we are in a grand slam and these tournaments of great importance often enhance it! Opposite, the now Kazak Shevchenko is also a rare Pokémon. Capable of hibernating as well as overplaying, this guy is capable of transcending himself in the greatest moments of adversity and delirious crowds. And Roland this year, with more than 700,000 people expected (absolute record), is likely to please him. Only Shevchenko wasn't injured, but that's just the same. Apart from Geneva where he regains some color, he is clearly not at his level. I have the impression that he doesn't really know how to play on earth anymore. Really tricky match to read then. In terms of match up, there is still an advantage for the Kazak who will fight to make Aslan play one more ball and round out the trajectories. I'm expecting a big fight!
