Prediction
Top seed Andrey Rublev will play Ilya Ivashka in the second round of the Gijon Open on Thursday.
Rublev has already taken home three awards this year in addition to reaching the quarterfinals of two Grand Slams. At the most recent Astana Open, the Russian, who was the fifth seed, overcame Adrian Mannarino, Laslo Djere, and Zhang Zhizhen en way to the semifinals. He was, however, defeated 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 by Stefanos Tsitsipas, the third seed.
On the other hand, Ivashka delivered his best performance of the year in the semifinals of the Atlanta Open, but he was upset by Alex de Minaur. He won matches over Hubert Hurkacz, Sam Querrey, and Lorenzo Musett to reach the round of 16 at the US Open. Jannik Sinner won a tough five-set battle against him. The Belarusian then progressed to the Sofia Open quarterfinals before being defeated by Holger Rune. He advanced to the second round of the Gijon Open with to his 6-3, 6-7(5), 6-4 victory over Feliciano Lopez.
Despite the challenges he has had this season, Rublev will be the clear favourite to defeat Ivashka, who has somewhat lost his form from the previous campaign. The Russian player likes to play aggressively and control the game from the baseline. In addition to his powerful serve, which has the potential to result in several aces, Rublev can close out points with his forehand.
Ivashka won 67 of 99 service points in his most recent match. He’ll try to outperform Rublev in the service games and perhaps try to fool the Russian with some deft drop shots. Despite the fact that Ivashka is far from a pushover, Rublev’s past performances make it impossible for him to lose on Thursday.
