Match Analysis

Casper Ruud, currently ranked 12, boasts a form index of 52.55 and an Elo rating of 3109.39. His fatigue level is high at 99 minutes, yet his surface strength index stands at an impressive 18.90. Ruud's mean serve index of 96.86 gives him a slight edge over Berrettini's 96.80, but both players are evenly matched in serving. On the return side, Ruud's mean return index of 85.80 outperforms Berrettini's 84.70, indicating a stronger capability to capitalize on Berrettini's serves. In their recent performances, Ruud has shown resilience, winning against Shintaro Mochizuki in his last match, while he faced a challenging defeat against Raphael Collignon in the previous round. Berrettini, on the other hand, secured a victory against Jaume Munar but struggled against Dalibor Svrcina in his prior outing. Both players have faced ups and downs recently, but Ruud's overall better form and slightly stronger metrics may provide him with the necessary momentum.

Final Prediction

Casper Ruud's advantages in return performance and a slightly superior form index give him an edge going into this match. A key factor to watch will be how effectively he can utilize his return game to put pressure on Berrettini's serves, potentially dictating the outcome of the match.
