David Goffin comes into this match ranked 60th with a form index of 30.38, indicating a moderate level of recent performance. His Elo rating stands at 980.19, which reflects his competitive standing. Goffin showcases a solid surface strength index of 11.46 and a mean serve index of 96.89, both of which suggest he is well-equipped for hard court play. In contrast, Yunchaokete Bu is ranked 75th, possessing a lower form index of 23.33 and an Elo rating of 597.40, indicating he is relatively less experienced at this level. Bu has a surface strength index of 7.72 and a mean serve index of 96.11, which demonstrates that while he can deliver effective serves, he may struggle against Goffin's stronger return game, as Goffin's mean return index of 89.36 exceeds Bu's by over 3 points. In their recent performances, Goffin has struggled to find his footing, losing two of his last three matches, including a challenging match against Juan Manuel Cerundolo in Gstaad. On the other hand, Bu managed to secure a victory in his match against Alan Magadan but also lost to Emilio Nava in Los Cabos, showcasing an inconsistency that Goffin might exploit. Both players have shown signs of fatigue, but Goffin's recent matches have been slightly less taxing in terms of cumulative minutes on court.
