Command Analysis

David Goffin

Current form
Goffin has not won a single official match in the new season. He played his last tournament in Rotterdam, where he lost to Alex De Minaur in the first round.
Professional qualities
Goffin is good at moving around the court. He has fast feet and therefore manages to catch almost every ball on the back line. The Belgian has always been able to find counterattacking moments in a defensive game and has a good backhand. However, as he got older, his speed decreased, which became a problem, especially in games against younger opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Goffin is the former seventh racket of the world. At the moment, the Belgian is in 63rd place in the world ranking. During his career, he won 21 trophies, six of which were in the ATP category. Last season, David won the grass challenger, which took place in Ilkley.
Interesting facts for betting
Goffin has suffered five defeats this season in five matches.

Rinky Hijikata

Current form
Hijikata has five wins and seven losses this season. On the American hard court this year, Rinky played in Dallas, where he lost to Tomas Makhach in the second round. And in Delray Beach, he lost to Bo Yunchaokete in the first round.
Professional qualities
Hijikata skillfully keeps the ball in play, but he still lacks the power in his shots. He is able to maintain depth, but he often gets into trouble against players with powerful forehands. Another disadvantage of Rinky is his serve - it does not have much power, so making a break in the game against him does not cause any difficulties for most opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Hijikata has won ten trophies in his career. Last season, the Australian representative won the challenger in Playford. Rinkie is currently ranked 82nd in the world.
Interesting facts for betting
Hijikata lost only three games in the last face-to-face meeting with Goffin.
