Nordea Open 2022 Final Prediction
Francisco Cerundolo beat Pablo Carreno-Busta in 17 games. Cerundolo won 67 percent of the points on his first serve and 71 percent of the points on his second serve. Cerundolo won 68 percent of service points and 4 out of 8 break points. Cerundolo’s first serves went in 68 percent of the time, and he saved two break points. Since the Miami semifinals, Cerundolo has won four times in a row. He wants to win his first singles title. Cerundolo’s last final was at the Argentina Open in 2021. Cerundolo has won 7 of his last 10 matches on clay courts.
In 18 games, Sebastian Baez beat Andrey Rublev. Baez won 69% of his first serve points and 64% of his second serve points. Baez won 69 percent of the points on his serves and 4 out of 8 break points. Baez got his first serve in 79 percent of the time and saved two break points. After beating his first top-10 player, Baez should feel good about himself. Baez is trying to win his second championship, which would be his first since the Estoril Open. This year, Baez made his last three public appearances. Baez has won his last seven clay-court matches.
Baez won in straight sets against Cerundolo. Concepción and Campinas, which are both candidates for 2021, hosted the games. Both had clay on them.
I don’t think this match will be any different because they both play great tennis. Baez has a mental edge because of his early wins. Baez also just won the most important match of the tournament and his career. With his third appearance, the remarkable 21-year-year old’s keeps going.
Prediction: Sebastian Baez is the Winner.
