Share card

8 matches are on Wednesday's card at Kitzbuhel, and we have a pick for every one of them. The headline act: Alexander Bublik against Facundo Diaz Acosta in the round of 16. Our calls: Bublik over Acosta, Navone over Struff, Vacherot over Halys, Molcan over Altmaier, Buse over Feldbausch, Rinderknech over Baez, and 2 more.

The boldest call on the card: Navone over Struff — the market disagrees with us there.

Jurij Rodionov vs. Tomas Martin Etcheverry

✓ Pick rightThis one lands on the correct side of the ledger: 70% on Tomas Martin Etcheverry, who won 6-2 7-6.

Pick: Etcheverry

Win probability: 70% Etcheverry · Sets: 2 (59%) · most likely score 2-0 (42%)

A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Jurij Rodionov goes up against Tomas Martin Etcheverry in the Kitzbuhel round of 16. Tomas Martin Etcheverry limps in on a 7-match losing skid, just 2 wins in 10. Jurij Rodionov comes in at 2 wins from the last ten.

This is the first career meeting between the two, which means no head-to-head baggage on either side of the net.

Tomas Martin Etcheverry simply rates much higher on clay, and our number follows from it. The edge belongs to Etcheverry — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.

Alexander Bublik vs. Facundo Diaz Acosta

✓ Pick rightThis one lands on the correct side of the ledger: 55% on Alexander Bublik, who won 6-3 7-5.

Pick: Bublik

Win probability: 55% Bublik · Sets: 2 (58%) · most likely score 2-0 (32%)

Wednesday's Kitzbuhel round of 16 pits Alexander Bublik against Facundo Diaz Acosta on clay. Alexander Bublik is searching for form, having lost 2 in a row (6 of the last 10). Facundo Diaz Acosta comes in at 8 wins from the last ten.

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

Hold strength tells the story — 77.8% versus 67.4% on first-serve points in Bublik's favor. Little separates them; Bublik gets the nod on the finest of margins.

Marco Trungelliti vs. Yannick Hanfmann

✓ Pick rightThis one lands on the correct side of the ledger: 75% on Yannick Hanfmann, who won 6-4 7-6.

Pick: Hanfmann

Win probability: 75% Hanfmann · Sets: 2 (59%) · most likely score 2-0 (46%)

A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Marco Trungelliti goes up against Yannick Hanfmann in the Kitzbuhel round of 16. Yannick Hanfmann has won 5 of the last 10. Marco Trungelliti has won 4 of the last 10.

This is the first career meeting between the two, which means no head-to-head baggage on either side of the net.

Yannick Hanfmann simply rates much higher on clay, and our number follows from it. Anything other than a Hanfmann win would rank among the bigger surprises of the week.

Jan Lennard Struff vs. Mariano Navone

✓ Pick rightNailed it. We had Mariano Navone at 51% before the match, and Mariano Navone won 6-0 6-3.

Pick: NavoneUpset call

Upset call: the market makes Struff the favorite; our numbers say Navone.

Win probability: 51% Navone · Sets: 2 (59%) · most likely score 2-0 (30%)

Jan Lennard Struff and Mariano Navone meet in the round of 16 at Kitzbuhel on Wednesday. Mariano Navone has won 3 of the last 10. Jan Lennard Struff has won 7 of the last 10.

The two have never played — a first meeting always adds a layer of uncertainty the numbers can't fully capture.

Mariano Navone is clearly higher-rated on clay — our number puts Navone around 51%. This one is close to a coin flip, and the lean toward Navone is exactly that — a lean.

Arthur Rinderknech vs. Sebastian Baez

✗ Pick wrongA miss: Arthur Rinderknech at 70% lost to Sebastian Baez (7-6 2-6 6-4).

Pick: Rinderknech

Win probability: 70% Rinderknech · Sets: 2 (60%) · most likely score 2-0 (44%)

Wednesday's Kitzbuhel round of 16 pits Arthur Rinderknech against Sebastian Baez on clay. Arthur Rinderknech is 4-6 across recent matches. Sebastian Baez has won 7 of the last 10.

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

Rinderknech's 75% behind the first serve (against 65.1% for Baez) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Baez comes in off a compressed schedule. The edge belongs to Rinderknech — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.

Ignacio Buse vs. Kilian Feldbausch

✓ Pick rightNailed it. We had Ignacio Buse at 66% before the match, and Ignacio Buse won 2-6 6-2 6-2.

Pick: Buse

Win probability: 66% Buse · Sets: 3 (45%) · most likely score 2-0 (37%)

A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Ignacio Buse goes up against Kilian Feldbausch in the Kitzbuhel round of 16. Ignacio Buse has won 4 of the last 10. Kilian Feldbausch is searching for form, having lost 2 in a row (7 of the last 10).

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

Buse's 70.7% behind the first serve (against 63.2% for Feldbausch) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Feldbausch comes in off a compressed schedule. Buse should have enough here, though Feldbausch has the tools to make the scoreboard uncomfortable.

Alex Molcan vs. Daniel Altmaier

✓ Pick rightWe got this one right. Alex Molcan was our 62% pick, and won 6-3 3-6 7-5.

Pick: Molcan

Win probability: 62% Molcan · Sets: 2 (59%) · most likely score 2-0 (38%)

A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Alex Molcan goes up against Daniel Altmaier in the Kitzbuhel round of 16. Alex Molcan has won 5 of the last 10. Daniel Altmaier comes in at 5 wins from the last ten.

Alex Molcan has had the better of this rivalry, winning 4 of 4 against Daniel Altmaier. On clay specifically it reads 1-0 Molcan — worth more than the overall number this week.

Alex Molcan is clearly higher-rated on clay — our number puts Molcan around 62%. Molcan comes in off a compressed schedule; Altmaier comes in off a compressed schedule. Expect resistance, but the match-level math tilts clearly toward Molcan.

Quentin Halys vs. Valentin Vacherot

✗ Pick wrongA miss: Valentin Vacherot at 54% lost to Quentin Halys (6-3 6-4).

Pick: Vacherot

Win probability: 54% Vacherot · Sets: 2 (59%) · most likely score 2-0 (32%)

Wednesday's Kitzbuhel round of 16 pits Quentin Halys against Valentin Vacherot on clay. Valentin Vacherot is 5-5 across recent matches. Quentin Halys is 4-6 across recent matches.

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. Halys comes in off a compressed schedule. This one is close to a coin flip, and the lean toward Vacherot is exactly that — a lean.
