Daniel Galan vs Casper Ruud Prediction and Betting Tips (15.04.2025)

Command Analysis

Daniel Galan

Colombia

Current form

Galan made his way to the main draw of the competition in Barcelona through qualifying. In the selection, Daniel beat Nikoloz Basilashvili in two sets, then he also dealt with Jacob Fearnley in two games. The Colombian tennis player has 19 wins and seven losses on clay cities this season.

Professional qualities

Galan is a prominent representative of the classical clay tennis school. The Colombian has already won two titles on clay this season. Daniel prefers a viscous game on the back line and willingly gets involved in protracted practical jokes. Not possessing outstanding physical characteristics, he compensates for this with endurance and perseverance, relying on discipline and perseverance.

Current indicators in the tour

Galan has already won two clay titles this season - he won the challengers held in Punta del Este and Santiago. In total, the 28-year-old Colombian has won ten trophies in his career. Daniel is currently ranked 117th in the world, although he was once 56th in the world.

Interesting facts for betting

Galan has won seven of his last ten matches.

Casper Ruud

Norway

Current form

Last week, Ruud tested the soil for the first time this season. He took part in the Monte Carlo Masters, where he beat Roberto Bautista-Agut at the start, but then lost to Alexei Popyrin.

Professional qualities

Ruud, who was previously considered a narrow-profile specialist in slow courts, has significantly expanded his arsenal. His punches became more powerful, which allowed him to feel more confident on fast surfaces. His main trump cards are a strong serve and forehand, through which he builds most of his attacks. Kasper's backhand is also stable, but lately he's been making too many mistakes with backhands.

Current indicators in the tour

Ruud added two titles to his trophy collection last season - he won on clay courts in Barcelona and Geneva. The 26-year-old Norwegian has won 12 ATP trophies in his career. Casper is currently in tenth place in the world ranking, although he was once the second racket of the world.

Interesting facts for betting

Ruud is last year's winner of the competition in Barcelona.

1.89Ruud with a head start (-5)

Ruud's current playing conditions are certainly questionable, as he unexpectedly lost to Popyrin in the second round of the Monte Carlo Masters last week.

We are betting on Ruud's victory in this confrontation.
