Command Analysis
Roberto Bautista Agut
SpainAt the current Masters in Rome, Bautista Aguthas not yet lost a single set. In the first round the Spanish player confidently beat Tommy Paul in straight sets (6-3, 6-4), and in the second round outplayed Cristian Garin (7-6, 6-3).
It looks like Bautista Agut decided to redeem himself after a weak performance in Madrid. We will soon know if he can succeed in that.
Andrey Rublev
Russian FederationRublev has been on a slight decline, and it is not very clear, what is the reason for that. Rublev had a week's rest before the start of the tournament in Rome and should have started his campaign well-rested.
Nevertheless, Rublev earned his first victory in Rome with great difficulty. In the opening match of the current Masters, Andrei faced the German player Jan-Lennard Struff. The Russian needed three sets to beat Struff (6-7, 6-1, 6-4).

Tip and bets
We suggest betting on Bautista Agut in this pair. The players recently met each other in Monte Carlo and then Rublev won. Surely the Spaniard has drawn some conclusions and will try to take revenge for that defeat. It will be a difficult fight for both tennis players, but we slightly prefer Bautista Agut.
Our prediction is Bautista Agut to win.
Bautista Agut and Rublev just recently played a three-set match in Monte Carlo. We believe that there will be a struggle in the upcoming fixture as well. Both Rublev and Bautista Agut are now in good form, so the match will probably last three sets.
