Head-to-head statistics Gaston - Duncan Chan

Two wins from his last three, with the only loss coming against Luca Van Assche in the Estoril semi-final. His set win rate sits at 62%, games at 54%. On serve, he holds around two-thirds of his service games with minimal double faults. Against less experienced opponents, that's usually enough to stay in control and keep matches from dragging out.
Match Results: Hugo Gaston
Duncan Chan Player Overview
Duncan Chan isn't among the favourites at major tournaments yet - the results and overall stats back that up. Four wins from ten matches. In July he picked up one win at a home challenger, then lost twice in a row. His set win rate (41%) and game win rate (47%) are both well below his opponent's, and his serve is a concern: he holds only half his service games. On top of that, his second serve gives opponents plenty to work with.
Match Results: Duncan Chan
Key factors
- Gaston has stayed under 12.5 games won in six matches in a row.
- Over his last 10 matches, Gaston has won 62% of sets and 54% of games.
- Duncan Chu drops 59% of return games - which makes quick wins easier for the favourite.
- Gaston's form is more consistent: 6 wins from 10, against 4 for his opponent.
Expected scenario
Gaston should control this one. The class gap is real, and he's the one in better form right now. A third set looks unlikely - two sets, done. The game count stays under the threshold.
Total Prediction
Gaston's run of unders on his individual total points to a tendency to close out matches quickly, even when he's clearly the better player. That reinforces the case for the Frenchman staying under the line on his own games won again.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Gаston's current form and level suggest he should control this match without spending too much time on court - his set win rate clearly stands out among the qualifiers. A two-set result looks most likely, and his total games won should stay under the line. The pick: Hugo Gaston individual total under 12.5 games.
