Muthe — Jumhur. Prediction for the match ATP Santiago
Last year in Rome, Corentin Muthe easily beat Damir Jumhur. On February 25, the tennis players will hold another face-to-face meeting. Which of them will be able to pass the first round of the tournament in Santiago? The rates and forecast will answer this question

Command Analysis

Corentin Moutet

Current form
So far, Mute has one victory on clay this season. In Buenos Aires, the Frenchman beat Sumit Nagal in two sets. After that, Corentin suffered two defeats. In the capital of Argentina, he lost to Lorenzo Musetti, and in Rio de Janeiro to Thomas Martin Etcheverry. In those matches, Muthe did not win a single game.
Professional qualities
Mute loves to compete in clay tournaments. The Frenchman's playing style is suitable for slow covers. Corentin likes to get involved in a firefight on the back line. If he's fit, he can outrun many rivals.
Current indicators in the tour
Mute is ranked 65th in the world ranking. This is not his best indicator, because at one time the Frenchman was the 51st racket of the world. Instability prevents him from rising higher.
Interesting facts for betting
Last season, Mute reached the quarterfinals at a tournament in Santiago. Then he played six matches in the capital of Chile, and in four of them the maximum number of games was played.

Damir Dzumhur

Current form
In his entire career, Jumhur has played more than 500 matches on clay. This is his favorite surface, although he hasn't had any success here lately. For example, in the current season, the representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina played five matches on the ground, in which he scored only two victories.
Last week in Rio de Janeiro, Djumhur beat Dusan Lajovic, but then lost to Camilo Hugo Carabelli. Both fights ended in two sets.
Professional qualities
This is not to say that Jumhur is a tall tennis player. His height is only 175 centimeters, so he can't boast of a strong serve. In this case, the Bosnian hopes for reliable and stable actions on the back line, so he feels quite comfortable on the ground.
Current indicators in the tour
This season, Jumhur has played five matches on clay, but scored only two victories. He is ranked 90th in the world classification, although he was once the 23rd racket.
Interesting facts for betting
Recently, Jumhur has not been holding protracted fights very often. For example, in 4 of the last 5 matches, the Bosnian ended in two games.
Trends
The Totalbetis less than 2.5 sets
There has been no set exchange in 4 of the Bosnian's last 5 matches.
1.651st setbet: total less than 9.5 games
In 3 of the last 5 matches of Jumhur, no more than 9 games were scored in the first set.
1.75Tip and bets
Last season, Mute reached the semi-finals here, so he will have a special motivation. The French representative will try to defend that result, and it should be done from the very first minutes of the tournament. Jumhur didn't impress me with anything special last week, so you can play with him. Considering that in 2024, Corentin defeated Damir with an eight-game difference, we suggest betting on a confident victory for the Frenchman.
Our forecast is to score with a handicap of (-3) games in 1.85
Bet on the total
Jumhur doesn't really resist. If the Balkan does not succeed, then he stops playing. In this case, we doubt that the meeting with Muthe will be successful.
The forecast is a total of less than 22.5 games in 1.70
Tiebreak bet
In 4 of the last 6 matches of Jumhur, no tie-break was played. Most likely, he will not be in the confrontation with Muta either.
Forecast — tiebreak - no for 1.45
