Tennis Prediction of the Day Andrey Rublev vs Matteo Berrettini

The game between the two announces a balanced and spectacular, following the Italian to dominate the chapter of winning balls, but is even more prone to unforced errors. The consistency shown in the game by Andrey Rublev in the previous rounds I recommend in this match, being more used to the higher stages in such a tournament than the Italian Berretini, and I bet on the access of the Russian player in the quarterfinals of this edition of US Open.
