Match Analysis

Francisco Cerundolo holds a rank of 19 and possesses a solid form index of 21.45, paired with an Elo rating of 1638.69. His surface strength index is 12.01, indicating a decent adaptation to grass. In contrast, Nuno Borges, ranked 37, boasts a higher form index of 45.52 and an Elo rating of 1322.12, which suggests he has shown more recent promise. While both players exhibit similar fatigue levels with none reported, Cerundolo has a slightly superior mean serve index at 97.10 compared to Borges's 95.19. However, the difference in their mean return indices is minimal, with Cerundolo at 89.24 and Borges at 87.47, failing to reach the 5-point threshold. Recent performances reveal contrasting trajectories for both players. Cerundolo has struggled in his last three matches, losing all of them, including a recent grass match against Alex Michelsen. Borges, on the other hand, achieved a win against Jack Pinnington Jones but also faced a defeat against Jenson Brooksby in his latest outing. Overall, Borges's recent victory indicates a more favorable momentum heading into this match.

Final Prediction

Nuno Borges appears to have a slight edge due to his higher form index and recent victories, despite his lower rank and Elo rating compared to Cerundolo. A key factor to observe will be how effectively Borges can respond to Cerundolo's serve, as both players are relatively matched in return capabilities.
