Eubanks vs Kudla – Match Predictions
Contents
It’s the battle of the Americans here, with Eubanks taking on Denis Kudla in the opening round of the Miami Open 2023. And with Eubanks ranked at 119 coupled with Kudla ranked at 122, this is a pretty tough game to call. Nevertheless, I’ve still broken things down to give some tennis predictions today ahead of this match.
Personally, I believe that Eubanks will take the win in this match, even though the two have never played before. I say this because Eubanks has already racked up a couple of wins to qualify for the main draw, while Kudla is there on a technicality. The technicality here is that he replaced Sebastian Korda, who was forced to withdraw through injury.
Anyway, you’re no doubt eager to see what you should be betting on here, so let me get right into it.
Eubanks To Win
Christopher Eubanks isn’t one of the top-ranked Americans, but neither is Kudla. And specifically for the 2023 Miami Open, Eubanks will be confident after pulling through two qualifying matches. His final qualifying match was a third-set breaker too, so he will have the belief following this tight victory.
Over 22.5 Games
While I think that Eubanks will win, I certainly don’t think it will be easy. Furthermore, Eubanks relies heavily on holding serve easily while taking a swing on his return games. These elements automatically mean that the match is likely to involve tight sets, and Kudla can definitely hold his own here.
Eubanks vs Kudla Preview
So there you have it – my predictions ahead of this first-round match. Yet for those who want some more information, please see the previews presented below.
Christopher Eubanks Preview
At 26 years old, Eubanks isn’t a newbie on the ATP Tour. He’s been around for quite some time, yet he’s never quite made the breakthrough to the top of the tree. And going into this match, he is ranked 119 in the world, which is why he had to go through qualifying.
Denis Kudla Preview
Denis Kudla has been around even longer than Eubanks at 30 years of age. However, he’s not having the best of seasons at ATP level. Kudla went out in the first round of qualifying at Indian Wells, and he didn’t look all that confident on the court. As for the Miami Open, he has got straight into the main draw due to Korda’s withdrawal. But really, he could have done with some matches under his belt.
Eubanks vs Kudla Head to Head
Although these guys are from the same country, they’ve never once played against each other on the ATP Tour. However, they have played once in a lower-level tournament, which does not count for the head-to-head statistics. In this match, Eubanks took the win, and this was played on an outdoor hard court – also in Florida.
