Head-to-head statistics Miyoshi - Ursu



Kenta Miyoshi Player Overview
Kenta Nishikori arrives at this quarterfinal in strong form - 8 wins from his last 10 matches. The last four have all gone his way, including a win over Dan Added in the previous round. His hold rate sits just above 50%, but he makes up for it with consistent return-game points and a 40% break-point conversion rate. Over 70% of sets won backs up his ability to close matches quickly without letting things drag. Matches average around 23-24 games, though he often wins without dropping a set or spending much time on court at all.
Match Results: Kenta Miyoshi









Vadym Ursu Player Overview
Vadim Ursu's form is shakier: 4 wins and 6 losses in his last 10 matches. Five of those defeats were straight-sets losses - a sign he struggles even against comparable opponents. His matches average just 20.8 games, and his set win rate sits at 41%. Serve holds are a problem, made worse by a double fault rate of 12% of all points played. Two recent wins at this tournament don't change the bigger picture - inconsistency runs through his results, and a quick finish is a real possibility here.

Key factors
- Kenta Miyeshi has won 8 of his last 10 matches, often in straight sets.
- Vadim Ursu has lost 6 of his last 10, with 5 of those losses coming in straight sets.
- Ursu's matches average 20.8 games - below the selected line.
- Miyeshi wins 71% of sets; Ursu just 41%.
- Neither player reaches a third set often, which reduces the risk of a long match.
Expected scenario
Kenta Nishioka looks the stronger player here - better form, better conversion of key moments. A third set is unlikely. Neither player goes deep into deciding sets often, and Nishioka's set win rate stands out at this stage of the draw. That keeps the total games closer to the lower end of the standard line.
ā Editor's Pick
Kenta Nishikori's form is clearly ahead of his opponent's - he wins his matches cleanly, without getting dragged into extra sets. Vadim Ursu regularly loses in straight sets even against players at his level and rarely makes it to a third set. Expect either a two-set win for the favourite or a short second set without many extra games from the underdog. The bet - under 21.5 total games.
