Head-to-head statistics Andreev - Nesterov



Adrian Andreev Player Overview
8 wins from his last 10. Andreev arrives in decent form, with five of those coming in straight sets - no unnecessary complications. His matches average 18.2 games, and he wins 70% of sets. Three wins at this tournament already, all convincing - he's clearly comfortable on this surface. Serve hold rate is low, which is a problem, but his overall point-winning numbers suggest he can stay competitive even when the serve isn't working.
Match Results: Adrian Andreev











Petr Nesterov Player Overview
Petr Nesterov has also won 7 of his last 10, with consistent results across that stretch. Six of those wins came without dropping a set, and just one loss where he failed to take a set - which points to solid control against comparable opposition. His average game count is noticeably higher at 22.1 per match, often tied to extended sets or deciding third sets. Set win rate is identical to his opponent's at 70%, but his hold rate is meaningfully better - he keeps more than two-thirds of his service games. That makes him slightly more resilient when matches are level.
Match Results: Petr Nesterov










Key factors
- Both players average over 18 and 22 games per match respectively.
- Both win 70% of their sets.
- No signs of quick straight-set blowouts in either player's recent results - low risk of a short match.
- No clear favourite makes a long, competitive match more likely.
Expected scenario
The match looks even. Both players can take sets off each other, and their current form and set-win rates back that up - no clear favourite either way. A third set is possible, not certain. Expect a fight in every set and a total games count above the standard line.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Both players are in solid form, and their similar set-win rates make a long match the most likely outcome. Nesterov's serve reliability is offset by Andreev's ability to compete in almost every rally. Given that balance, betting high on the total makes sense: Bet - over 21.5 games.No comments
