In the 1/8 finals of the challenger in Italy, Russian tennis player Evgeny Karlovsky will play against Aleksandar Vukic from Australia.
Aleksandar VukicThe 26-year-old representative of Australia recently played a challenger in the USA.
In Champaign, Vukic showed a good game and won four consecutive matches with a score of 2-0 in sets. But in the final of the tournament, Vukic already got on the young Ben Shelton from the USA, who made good progress this year. As a result, Aleksandar lost the final match in three sets, but the first set of the Australian turned out great – 6:0; 3:6; 2:6. This game was on November 20.
Evgeny KarlovskyThe 28-year-old Russian tennis player, in turn, got into the main draw of the tournament in Italy as a lucky loser after qualifying.
In the semifinals of the selection , Karlovsky beat Italian Simone Roncalli in two sets – 7:6 (7:5); 6:2. But in the qualifying final, Evgeny already lost in two sets to Stuart Parker from Great Britain – 3:6; 5:7. In the first set, Karlovskiy quickly lost a game on his serve and settled for a score of 1:4 in games. After that, Parker didn't play very stable, but still Stewart took the set. In the second set, Karlovskiy again quickly lost a game on his serve and this time Evgeny settled for a score of 1:3 on games. In the middle of the game, the tennis players exchanged breaks, and after that, Evgeny was able to make a second break in a row and eventually recouped. The set eventually turned out to be protracted, but with the score 5:5, Karlovsky lost the game on his serve and then Parker served for the match. The tennis players spent one hour and fifty-five minutes on the court.
Evgeny Karlovsky and Aleksandar Vukic played together in 2018 at the ITF tournament in the USA. Then in the final of the hard court tournament, Karlovskiy was stronger in two sets – 6:4; 6:4.
ForecastIn this match, Aleksandar Vukic is considered by the bookmakers to be a fairly clear favorite, which is quite fair.
However, after the recent arrival from the USA, Vukic may still have problems in this match. We suggest that you bet more than 21.5 games on the total.
