Tennis Prediction Flavio Cobolli vs Rafael Jodar: Cincinnati

🇺🇸 Cincinnati

• I start with the argument that should make me run away tonight, Rafael Jodar put 6-2 6-1 on Alejandro Tabilo.

• 15 games, no discussion. Taking margin against this player is exactly the kind of ticket that ends up in dust.

• Except that Tabilo was playing his 4th match in 5 days, and he was facing Jodar for the 3rd time in 3 weeks. Flavio Cobolli arrives with 2 days of rest and a clean record in this duel. It's not the same setting.

• Cobolli doesn't play short matches. His 2 outings this week lasted 34 games against Blockx and 26 against Kecmanovic, both in 3 sets. That's what his whole season looks like.

• Jodar, on the other hand, is at 63 matches this year, at 19 years old, and in his 3rd North American tournament in a row. He wins everything, but he often wins long: 34 games and a 3rd set against Shapovalov on Sunday, a tiebreaker to get rid of Fils in Montreal, 3 sets against Tabilo in Washington.

• This bet doesn't require an exploit. Taking a set is enough, 2 tight sets is enough too. Cobolli just needs to stay in the match, not win it.
