Command Analysis
Luciano Darderi
ItalyCurrent form
Dardery played his last match at the US Open. As part of the New York major, he hung up his racket following the opening match, losing to Sebastian Baez. Luciano has only one win and six losses on open hard courts this season.
Professional qualities
Dardery is a classic clay court player, with over 250 matches on slow courts and only about 40 games on outdoor hard courts. This bias towards clay is explained by the influence of the South American and Italian tennis schools, but Luciano himself does not avoid hard surfaces. The young tennis player still lacks experience playing on hard and grass. He is fast, technical, with an excellent forehand, which has room to improve.
Current indicators in the tour
Dardery is ranked 41st in the world. He has won two titles this season - he won in Perugia and won his first ATP title in his career in Cordoba. The 22-year-old Italian now has six career trophies to his name.
Interesting facts for betting
Dardery has just one win in seven matches on outdoor hard courts this season.
Mikhail Kukushkin
KazakhstanCurrent form
Last week Kukushkin took part in a tournament in Guangzhou. Within the framework of that challenger, the representative of Kazakhstan managed to demonstrate a rather good result - he reached the semi-finals. On open hard courts, Mikhail has 22 wins and eight losses this season.
Professional qualities
Kukushkin is a professional hard court player, he has plenty of experience. Mikhail plays confidently on all surfaces, except grass. However, on hard courts his tennis is revealed to the fullest: he serves well, hits powerfully and flatly right over the net, has an excellent view of the court and compensates for the lack of speed with excellent tactical thinking and understanding of the game.
Current indicators in the tour
Kukushkin is ranked 112th in the world, although he was once ranked 39th. This season, the 36-year-old Kazakh has added two trophies to his collection - he won the challengers in Manama and Tenerife on open hard courts.
Interesting facts for betting
On open hard courts, in 8 of Kukushkin's last 10 matches, the second set was played with fewer than 9.5 games.
