Berrettini — Grixpur. Forecast for the ATP Rotterdam match
Berrettini and Grikspur will meet in the first round of the Rotterdam tournament on February 5. Grikspur was injured at the Davis Cup at the end of last season, which caused him to have virtually no pre-season training. Nevertheless, in the new season, Tallon managed to show a good result in Montpellier, where he reached the quarterfinals. How will the Dutchman perform in Rotterdam? - the bets for this match are in our forecast.

Command Analysis

Matteo Berrettini

Current form
Berrettini has failed the start of the season. At the Brisbane tournament, he lost to Jordan Thompson in the first round. At the Australian Open, Matteo only managed to overcome the opening lap - he defeated Cameron Norrie, but then lost to Holger Rune. Last season, the Italian scored three wins in six matches at Indore.
Professional qualities
Berrettini is a tennis player who, due to his tall stature, relies on a powerful serve. The Italian either earns aces, or immediately gains an advantage in the draw, after which he finishes off the opponent with his devastating forehand. Matteo is not in the best condition right now, which is why his crown bundle of serve and forehand is not working as effectively as it did at the peak of his career. However, even in this state, he is able to compete with top players.
Current indicators in the tour
Berrettini is currently ranked 33rd in the world rankings. During his career, the Italian has won 16 trophies, six of which are in the ATP category. Last year, Matteo won three titles on clay in Marrakech, Gstaad and Kitzbuhel.
Interesting facts for betting
4 of Berrettini's last 5 matches turned out to be "riding".

Tallon Griekspoor

Current form
Grixpur showed a pretty good result at the Montpellier tournament last week. As part of those competitions, Tallon managed to reach the quarterfinals - at this stage he lost to Jesper De Jong.
Professional qualities
Grikspur is a versatile player who demonstrates consistent results on all surfaces. However, his playing style is quite monotonous: the Dutchman relies on a sharp forehand, while the backhand is noticeably inferior, especially when hitting in motion. Another disadvantage is a weak reception, which is why he often has to bring sets to a tie-break.
Current indicators in the tour
Grixpur is in the top 50 of the world ranking and is ranked 43rd. In total, during his career, the representative of the Netherlands won 20 trophies, two of which were in the ATP category. He won his last title on grass in 'S-Hertogenbosch in 2023.
Interesting facts for betting
Grikspur was last year's semi-finalist in the Rotterdam competition.
