Command Analysis

Corentin Moutet

Current form
Moutet broke the resistance of Nicolas Mejia (7-6, 6-1) in the first round of the competition in Winston-Salem. Corentin served three aces, converted five break points and lost three games on his serve in the match against the Colombian. The Frenchman has won six of his last ten matches.
Professional qualities
Moutet is a versatile player who adapts well to different surfaces and game situations. Although he does not have a powerful serve, his tenacity and ability to fight for every point make him a difficult opponent. Moutet also stands out for his ability to cut balls very well, which allows him to vary his game and put his opponents in awkward positions. He also plays well at the net, finishing rallies with confidence, which adds variety to his tactics on the court.
Current indicators in the tour
Moutet is in the top 100 of the world rankings and is currently ranked 68th. This season, Corentin showed his best game on his specialty clay - in March, he first reached the semi-finals of the tournament in Santiago, and then he reached the same stage at the challenger in Naples.
Interesting facts for betting
On outdoor hard courts this season, Moutet has three wins and one loss.

Roman Safiullin

Current form
Safiullin showed a good result at the challenger in Cary last week. Roman won that competition, beating Mattia Bellucci in the final. The Russian has seven wins in his last ten matches.
Professional qualities
Safiullin prefers to play on hard courts, where his powerful serve and excellent forehand bring him the most success. These elements of his game allow him to control the pace of matches and dictate his terms to his opponents. However, his return game remains unclear, which sometimes reduces his ability to create break points and put pressure on his opponent's serve. However, his strengths make him a dangerous player on fast surfaces, where he can use his best qualities to the fullest.
Current indicators in the tour
Safiullin won the challenger in Cary, which was also held on open hard court, on the eve of the tournament in Winston-Salem. For Roman, this was the 24th title in his career. In addition, this season on hard court, the Russian played in the semi-finals of the competition in Brisbane - at this stage he lost to Holger Rune.
Interesting facts for betting
Safiullin played 4 of 5 matches last week in Carey through the "top".
