Tampere Predictions & Picks — July 24, 2026

A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Gauthier Onclin goes up against Tom Gentzsch in the Tampere quarterfinal. Tom Gentzsch comes in at 6 wins from the last ten. Gauthier Onclin has won 6 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.

Gentzsch's 72.2% behind the first serve (against 66.9% for Onclin) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. The edge belongs to Gentzsch — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.

Hynek Barton and Maks Kasnikowski meet in the quarterfinal at Tampere on Friday. Hynek Barton comes in at 6 wins from the last ten. Maks Kasnikowski is 7-3 across recent matches.

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

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

Friday's Tampere quarterfinal pits Henri Squire against Otto Virtanen on clay. Otto Virtanen is 7-3 across recent matches. Henri Squire has won 6 of the last 10.

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

The serve is where this match separates: Virtanen has been winning 74.8% of first-serve points to Squire's 70.5%, and on clay that gap compounds fast. Squire comes in off a compressed schedule; Virtanen comes in off a compressed schedule. This one is close to a coin flip, and the lean toward Virtanen is exactly that — a lean.
