In the 1/8 finals at the Forli tournament, Russian tennis player Pavel Kotov will play against Keegan Smith from the USA.
Pavel Kotov
The 23-year-old Russian tennis player successfully started the tournament in Forli, as we expected, but at the same time the match in the 1/16 finals for Kotov still turned out to be difficult. Zizu Berges from Belgium imposed a tight fight and managed to beat him only in three sets – 7:5; 6:7 (5:7); 7:5.
Keegan Smith
The 23-year-old U.S. representative for the Forli tournament made his way through the qualification. In the semifinals of qualification, Smith was stronger than the representative of Italy Lorenzo Rottoli - 6:3; 7:5. In the final of qualification, Keegan also beat My Echargi from Tunisia in two sets – 6:4; 6:2. The day before yesterday in the 1/16 finals, Keegan beat his opponent from Monaco Valentin Vachero in two sets – 7:5; 6:4.
Forecast
Pavel Kotov is the favorite in this match, but the opening match showed that Pavel is not in the best shape right now, but Keegan Smith has not lost a single set yet. There are all prerequisites that there will be a tight game with the participation of a Cat again, and therefore we propose to put more than 20.5 games on the total.
