Felix and Hubert are set to take the excitement to a new level. They have been resurgent at the tail end of the campaign and will indeed fight for every inch of the court.
Felix Auger-Aliassime to win @ 13/10 (2.30)
The Basel Open championship clash has multiple narratives, the out-of-form defending champion takes on the in-form Shanghai Masters conqueror. Hurkacz has struggled to get over the line against unfancied names while Auger-Aliassime has gotten the better of whoever has come in front of him, including top-seed Holger Rune. We are going with the former to triumph in this meeting with the Canadian extending his H2H record to 3-1 in its aftermath.
Under 25.5 Games @ 7/10 (1.70)
Only Alexander Shevchenko has given Auger-Aliassime a tough time in Basel. However, the rest of the pack has folded against him in straight sets. Top seed and ATP 6th ranked Rune could only take five games off him. We believe it will be a short encounter that does not require a deciding set and concludes under 25.5 games. The prior meetings between Felix and Hubert exemplify this as they have finished in two sets and not gone the distance.
