Rublev had a poor performance at the Paris Masters last week, where he failed to make it past the opening round, losing to Francisco Cerundolo in the first round. On indoor hard courts, Andrey has five wins and four losses this season.
Professional qualities
Rublev has an attacking style of play, where his powerful forehand plays a key role. He feels confident along the entire length of the court, but often prefers the baseline. His backhand along the line poses a great threat to opponents and adds aggression to rallies. An important element of Andrey arsenal is a strong and accurate serve.

Professional qualities
Sonego, with his versatile skills, performs well on all surfaces, although he began his career on clay.
