In the quarterfinals of the Antalya tournament, Nerman Fatih from Bosnia and Herzegovina will play against Duje Aydukovic from Croatia.
Duje Aydukovich
For the second consecutive week in Antalya, the 20-year-old representative of Croatia looks a bit heavy, but so far he is still moving forward on the grid. In the 1/16 finals, Aidukovich had an unexpectedly difficult match for himself against Isha Oliel from Israel – 6:4; 1:6; 6:4. Yesterday, in the 1/8 finals, Aidukovich again had to spend three sets and this time Duje won a strong-willed victory over Romanian Cesar Kretsu – 4:6; 6:4; 6:4.
Nerman Fatich
The 27-year-old representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina, in turn, is trying to rehabilitate himself this week for the failure last week. So far, everything is going pretty well for Fatich. After defeating Martin Tiffon in the 1/16 finals, Nerman automatically got into the quarterfinals, the reason for this event was the refusal of Ukrainian Vladislav Orlov from the match that was supposed to take place yesterday.
Forecast
It is difficult to say whether two days without a game will benefit Nerman Fatih, or he will just fall out of the rhythm of the game. At the same time, Aidukovich is also starting to get tired a little, but so far he is holding on due to the ability to play on the ground. It is difficult to look for a favorite here, but we can assume with almost complete confidence that in this confrontation both tennis players will have a difficult battle, and therefore it is quite possible to put more than 20.5 games on the total.
