Match Predict – Handicap (-1) for Shapovalov
Shapovalov has just recently returned to the field after a month’s break. Of course, Denis needs some time to play his game. The Canadian tennis player managed to get some practice at the recent Masters in Madrid. We expect to see the usual game in Shapovalov’s performance at the current tournament in Rome, where he previously played in the semifinals.
Total Games – Over 22.5
Shapovalov and Sonego are in approximately the same playing conditions. We believe that we are in for a battle match, which will last for three sets.

Lorenzo Sonego:
Sonego has not had much success so far on the clay this season. Last week, the Italian lost in the first round of the Madrid Masters to Jack Draper (3-6, 4-6).
However, this result can’t be called too sensational, as Draper is very talented and there is no doubt that in the near future his name will be heard more and more often.
At the Masters in Monte Carlo, Lorenzo beat Ilya Ivashka (6-3, 6-3) but then failed to cope with Laslo Dere (4-6, 4-6).
In Barcelona, Sonego confidently got through the first round, defeating Elias Ymer (6-2, 6-4), but then lost to Pablo Carreno Busta.
Last year, Sonego reached the semifinals in Rome. Before losing to Novak Djokovic (3-6, 7-6, 2-6) Sonego beat Gaеl Monfils (6-4, 5-7, 6-4), Gianluca Mager (6-4, 6-4), Dominic Thiem (6-4, 6-7, 7-6) and Andrey Rublev (3-6, 6-4, 6-3).
Denis Shapovalov:
Shapovalov’s results are a total disappointment. It is hard to say what is going on, after all the Canadian showed very good tennis at the Australian Open, but then something went wrong again.
Since then, the only exception was a tournament in Dubai, where Denis reached the semi-finals. Soon afterwards, at the Indian Wells Masters, he managed to win just one match. In Miami, world #16 lost straight away to Lloyd Harris (3-6, 4-6).
Shapovalov played his first match on the clay only last week. The 23-year-old started at the Masters in Madrid with a win over Ugo Humbert (7-6, 6-3), but lost his next game against Andy Murray (6-1, 3-6, 6-2). The loss to Murray was a very painful one indeed. Murray, who plays with a metal hip joint, lost only two games to Shapovalov in the third set.
Safe Bets
In 3 of Shapovalov’s last 5 matches, more than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Over 9.5” with the odds of 1.66.
