Command Analysis
Fabio Fognini
ItalyCurrent form
Fognini beat Tristan Skulkeit 1-6, 6-3, 6-2 at the start of the competition in Cap Can. Fabio scored three aces against the Australian, made three break points and lost two games on his serve. It was the first victory for the Italian this season with two defeats.
Professional qualities
Fognini has always stood out for his agility on the tennis court and dynamic playing style, but at 37 it becomes more difficult to maintain such a pace. His attacking approach is still visible, but the old fervor is gradually fading. Defensively, the Italian does not always have time, and sometimes ends the draws with risky strikes, trying to shorten their duration.
Current indicators in the tour
Fognini is the former ninth racket of the world. The 37-year-old Italian is currently ranked 95th in the world. Fabio has won 20 trophies in his career, including nine in the ATP category. Last season, let's remind, he won on clay in Montemara.
Interesting facts for betting
Fognini has played only three matches this season, in which he scored one victory.
Constant Lestienne
FranceCurrent form
Lestienne was stronger than Cameron Norrie in the first round of the Cap Caen competition (6-4, 7-5). Constant scored five aces, made seven break points, and lost five games on his serve against the Briton. The Frenchman has five wins and five losses on the open hard court this season.
Professional qualities
Lestienne is an experienced player who is used to fighting different opponents. He does not pose a serious threat to tennis players from the top 10 of the world rankings, but he can cause trouble for those who are unstable. His main advantage is the ability to stay in the draws and provoke opponents to make mistakes. However, the lack of power in his strikes limits his attacking potential.
Current indicators in the tour
Lestienne is currently ranked 176th in the world, although he was once 48th in the world. The 32-year-old Frenchman won his last title at the challenger in Alicante in 2023. It was the 14th trophy of his career.
Interesting facts for betting
The last six matches with Lestienne were played in two sets.

1.46Tip and bets
At the age of 37, Fognini goes to tournaments solely for a check. The Italian veteran has not been in a good mood for the game for a long time. We believe that the upcoming match is unlikely to end with a victory for him - Lestienne is good on the back line and is determined to earn as many rating points as possible in the Cap.
Our prediction is that Lestienne will win by a factor of 1.77
Bet on the total
We do not think that this match can turn out in favor of Fognini. The Italian is already 37 years old and he is no longer able to hold one duel after another at a high level. Nevertheless, he may well take one set away from Lestienne.
The second betting tip is a total of more than 22 games for a coefficient of 1.97
Bet on the first set
In three of Lestienne's last five matches, more than 9.5 games were played in the first set. Most likely, the upcoming match against Fognini will start with the riding of the first game.
