    Key factors

    • Six wins from his last ten. Shelbaikh has been solid on serve throughout.
    • The winning trend holds - consistent results across recent outings.
    • Lajovic has been less consistent lately.
    • Shelbaikh's set and game win rates are on par with his opponent's, if not better.

    Expected scenario

    A tight match, fought set by set. Both players have similar numbers in games and sets won, and Shelbayh's recent winning run makes a competitive scenario - right through to a possible third set - a realistic one. That fits well with a bet on the Jordanian.

    Prediction

    Shelbayh's run of opening-set wins shows he gets into matches quickly and can set the tone from the start. That makes a bet on him to win the match more convincing - especially against an inconsistent opponent.

    ⭐ Editor's Pick

    Abedallah Shelbayh has won six in a row, serving well and backing it up across the board statistically. Dusan Lajovic is ranked higher, but his results have been inconsistent over the past few weeks. An even match where the Jordanian holds the edge - that's the realistic scenario here, and it makes him the pick. The bet: Abedallah Shelbayh to win the match.
