A good 50/50?
It's hard to give a real advantage to one of these two players, this match is not easy!
Cobolli is really discovering the grass this season and shows good potential on the surface. He hooked up some good players but I asked to see a little more because ultimately he only had to play profiles of good servers/aggressive players. Against Hijikata the match will be very different, he will have to work longer on the exchange and will have fewer free points, we will see what this Italian is made of! We have a little more certainty about Hijikata, he has proven a little more on grass and I will give him another advantage which is the Grand Slam format. The Australian sublimes himself in these tournaments and plays his best tennis, as he says! I would say that Cobolli is a better player overall and outside of Grand Slams, for the moment I find that Hijikata gives a little more certainty and guarantees so...
