His surface strength index is 11.45, indicating moderate proficiency on hard courts. In contrast, Corentin Moutet, ranked 46, boasts a slightly better Elo rating of 1270.06 and a higher form index of 51.96. Moutet's surface strength index is lower at 9.38, although he has shown resilience in his recent matches on hard surfaces. Notably, Michelsen has a significantly higher mean serve index (97.45) compared to Moutet's (94.87), which could play a critical role in the match. Both players have similar mean return indices, with Michelsen at 88.78 and Moutet at 88.72, indicating balanced return capabilities. In their last three matches, Michelsen's performance has been mixed, winning against Learner Tien and Lorenzo Musetti but losing to Karen Khachanov in his most recent outing. Moutet's recent form has also been inconsistent; he recorded a convincing victory over Mackenzie McDonald but faced defeat against Alejandro Davidovich Fokina prior to that. Moutet's fatigue level of 91 minutes from his current tournament could potentially impact his performance, while Michelsen has yet to accumulate any fatigue.
