Match Analysis

Carlos Alcaraz brings a form index of 79.18 and an Elo rating of 6661.20 into this match. His cumulative fatigue stands at 474 minutes, but his Surface Strength Index of 58.82 indicates a strong capability on grass courts. Alcaraz's mean serve index is significantly high at 96.26, compared to Lehecka's 96.21, showing they are closely matched in serving ability. However, Alcaraz's mean return index of 87.68 surpasses Lehecka's 84.82 by a margin greater than 5 points, suggesting he has a superior returning game, which could be crucial in breaking Lehecka's serve. Jiri Lehecka, ranked 30th, has a form index of 71.24 and an Elo rating of 2074.33. His fatigue level is lower at 344 minutes, but his Surface Strength Index of 18.23 indicates he is less effective on grass compared to Alcaraz. In their recent performances, both players have shown solid form, with Alcaraz winning all three of his matches convincingly, including a dominant win over Roberto Bautista Agut in the semifinals. Lehecka also secured three straight wins, but his matches have been more contested, with at least one set lost in each.

Final Prediction

Alcaraz's higher rank, superior return game, and recent form give him a significant edge going into the final. One key factor to watch will be the effectiveness of Alcaraz's returning ability against Lehecka's serve, as it could dictate the flow of the match and determine the outcome.
