Our favourite Jack Draper vs Andrey Rublev – match predictions
Contents
Draper has been a revelation at the US Open, defeating Herbert Hurkacz in straight sets and following it up with a 3-1 dismantling of Michael Mmoh. In Rublev, he faces off against a familiar foe and his biggest test to date.
Jack Draper to win @ 21/10 (3.10)
Draper and Rublev have come across each other twice before with the Russian ace triumphing on both occasions. We believe it will be different this time as a determined Draper finally gets a belated win. The Russian ace goes missing at such stages and has struggled in recent outings, needing a deciding set to get past in his last two outings. If Draper can keep his physical conditioning, he can oust him from the competition. The 21-year-old has momentum on his side and with a possibility of a career-high ranking on the cards, will play out of his skin to achieve that.
Draper to win the match and under 40.5 total games @ 9/2 (5.50)
We do not expect this match to finish in straight sets as has been the case in both participants’ recent outings. Rublev’s victories over Monfils and Rinderknech came with 3-1 scorelines. The number of games did not go past 37 on any occasion. On the other hand, a similar statistic is read for Draper’s victory over Mmoh with 36 games played and only needing 30 games to finish off Hurkacz. With Draper showcasing the better form and having our blessing to triumph, we expect this match to conclude in his favour and with less than 40.5 games being played.
