Key Prediction Insights

This round-of-32 match in Montpellier, France is on indoor hard courts at an ATP 250-level event. Aleksandar Kovacevic is the clear preseason favorite — the model gives him a 65.97% chance to win versus Moise Kouame at 34.03%, with a predicted total of about 22.7 games in the match (suggesting a straight‑sets outcome is most likely).

Match Analysis

Kouame arrives ranked 1000 with a form index of 34.29 and an Elo of 71.04; he carries 332 minutes of court time in this event and shows a surface strength index of 0.0. He has respectable serving numbers relative to his profile (mean serve index ~50.8) but a limited return profile (mean return index ~27.7). Kouame’s recent stretch includes two hard‑court wins in Montpellier (both three‑set affairs of 160–172 minutes) and a three‑set loss on clay, which explains his tournament fatigue. Kovacevic is ranked 56 with a lower form index (17.75) but a far stronger Elo (935.89) and no accumulated fatigue in this tournament. His surface strength index is modest (7.45) but his mean serve (98.46) and mean return (91.10) are markedly higher than Kouame’s — both differences exceed 5 points by a wide margin, and will be decisive. Recent results show three losses on hard courts (Brisbane, Auckland, Australian Open), but with none of the same taxing minutes on court that Kouame has logged.

Final Prediction

Kovacevic’s superior ranking, Elo and dominant serve/return metrics give him the edge despite a lower form index and recent losses. Key factor to watch: Kovacevic’s serving (aces and hold percentage) versus Kouame’s ability to convert break opportunities while under physical load from earlier long matches.
