Casper Ruud vs Sebastian Ofner – Match Predictions
Contents
Over 19.5 Games
Despite some tough encounters against top-5 opponents in the past, Ofner’s improved gameplay indicates that he is moving in the right direction and making positive progress. As he faces Casper Ruud, the Austrian will undoubtedly be looking to continue his momentum and present a challenging test for the top seed. He has dug deep and will force the issue against Ruud. Based on this, we do not expect Ruud to walk over him in this battle and there should be at least 19.5 games to find a victor.
2-0 to Casper Ruud
With much preparation, Ruud found it hard to get going in Wimbledon. With his attention returning to the red surface, Alexander Shevchenko found out why the Norwegian is a different beast on clay courts. The French Open finalist has the pedigree to triumph and he should manage it in straight sets. Offner will not make it easy but we do not see the Austrian stealing a set away from Ruud despite his impressive seven-match winning streak.

Casper Ruud
After facing a tough loss at Wimbledon earlier this month, he made a strong comeback in the ATP Bastad tournament.

Sebastian Ofner
The Austrian ace’s recent form has been on an upswing, and he enters the Bastad Open quarter-final with a notable winning streak. His title-winning performance at the Salzburg Challenger last week was a significant boost to his morale, ending a frustrating five-match losing streak in championship matches at the Challenger level in 2023. Throughout this week’s matches in Bastad, he showcased dominant performances against skilled clay-courters like Tomas Martin Etcheverry and Bernabe Zapata Miralles.
