Command Analysis

Alexei Popyrin

Current form
On the eve of the start of the Monte Carlo Masters, Popyrin played two matches in the framework of the Ultimate Tennis Showdown exhibition competitions, which were held on clay at the amphitheater in Nimes. Alexey lost to Kasper Ruud in that tournament and defeated Ben Shelton. Last season, the Australian scored four wins and eight losses on clay courts.
Professional qualities
In Popyrin's game, it is worth highlighting a good first serve, around which he tries to build his entire game. Alexey does not like protracted practical jokes, preferring to complete them as quickly as possible. The Australian can be called a universal tennis player, because he knows how to play on any kind of surface, however, due to the peculiarities of the playing style, Popyrin still prefers fast courts.
Current indicators in the tour
Popyrin has won three ATP trophies in his career. The 25-year-old Australian made the last of them last season, winning the open hard court at the Montreal Masters. Alexey is currently ranked 27th in the world ranking.
Interesting facts for betting
Popyrin has won only 3 of the last 10 matches.

Ugo Humbert

Current form
Umber also took part in the Ultimate Tennis Showdown exhibition competitions - he lost to Alex De Minaur and scored a victory over Gael Monfils. On clay last season, Hugo won five matches and lost in seven matches.
Professional qualities
Umber is left-handed, which is undoubtedly a plus for him. Especially in games against right-handed players who have an unstable backhand. Hugo prefers an aggressive style of play, which is why he is more likely to succeed on fast surfaces, especially indoor hard courts. Although the Frenchman has had some good results on clay during his career, for example, last season in Monte Carlo he managed to reach the quarterfinal stage of the competition.
Current indicators in the tour
This season, Umber has already managed to add to his trophy collection with one tournament he won - he won the Indore in Marseille. It was the seventh ATP title of his career for the 26-year-old Frenchman. Hugo is currently in 20th place in the world ranking.
