Key Prediction Insights

At Bastad in Sweden, round of 32 on clay at an ATP 250 event, Nikoloz Basilashvili is narrowly favoured over Jan Choinski. The model projects Basilashvili to win with a 59.72% probability against Choinski’s 40.28%, and expects about 23.1 total games in the match.

Match Analysis

The model’s edge for Basilashvili comes mainly from his recent record by level and a marginal advantage in serve-and-return interplay, while Choinski’s stronger recent form trims that gap. Recent record by level contributes the largest single lift to Basilashvili’s chances (≈5.3 percentage points), supported by a slightly higher Elo (1608.2 vs 1600.2) and a surface strength index that favours Basilashvili on clay (25.8 vs 10.7). Serve & return factors also tilt to Basilashvili overall, though only modestly. Looking at individual profiles: Choinski is ranked 75 with a form index of 44.7 and a very strong return index (93.4) — notably about 6.3 points better than Basilashvili’s 87.0 return — which will be a key weapon on clay. Basilashvili sits at rank 111, form index 37.5, and similar serve numbers to Choinski (mean serve indexes essentially identical), so there’s no large serving gap to expect. Both arrive fresh with zero cumulative fatigue in this event. Over their last three matches each, results are mixed. Choinski went 1–2 (a straight-set win over Kopriva, losses to Tiafoe and Bergs), mostly on grass; Basilashvili is also 1–2 with a win over Sonego and defeats versus Ymer and Altmaier, likewise on grass. Neither player brings recent clay match rhythm into this encounter.

Aces and Double Faults Predictions

The aces prediction sits at about 11.9 total for the match and the double faults prediction at roughly 6.1 expected double faults.
