Nikoloz Basilashvili vs Hubert Hurkacz Prediction and Betting Tips (13.08.2021)

Command Analysis

Nikoloz Basilashvili

Georgia

Basilashvili is in excellent shape at the tournament in Toronto. It looks like he found his game and feels very confident on the local courts. This is evidenced by the devastation of Alex De Minaur in the second round, who was able to take only two games in the match against the Georgian tennis player. In the first round, Basilashvili outplayed Jenson Brooksby in three sets (2-6, 6-0, 6-4).

Hubert Hurkacz

Poland

Hurkacz has reached the last 16 without playing a single match in Toronto. The seventh seed was supposed to start with the second round match against Kei Nishikori, but that was a walkover: Nishikori withdrew before the start of the match due to a shoulder injury. So it is hard to say whether Hurkacz is in shape. The last official appearance of the Polish player was at the end of July at the Tokyo Olympics, where he lost to Liam Broady in three sets (5-7, 6-3, 3-6).

Tip and bets

2.5Basilashvili to win

Basilashvili gained momentum in Toronto. The local courts are ideal for his playing style. Just the other day Basilashvili crushed Alex De Minaur, giving his opponent only two games. Hurkacz is yet to play a match in Toronto, and we are uncertain about his form. We suggest playing Basilashvili's victory in this match.

Our prediction - Basilashvili to win.

Hurkacz was supposed to play against Nishikori in the second round, but since the Japanese player withdrew before the start, Hurkacz hasn't played any matches in Toronto yet. It won't be easy to get into the rhythm without playing practice. As for Basilashvili, he is on form and ready to fight. The Georgian already won two matches in Toronto. We expect that he will put up a fight against the favourite.

Second wager - total over 22 games.
