Rune-Ruud prediction, Roland Garros: Casper 1st set at 1.86

The two meet again after the match in Rome, won by the comeback Dane. And last year in Paris there were sparks…

The challenge of the north, once again. Casper Ruud against Holger Rune is worth access to the semifinal of Roland Garros, against one between Sascha Zverev and Tomas Etcheverry. The Norwegian and the Dane don’t like each other – to put it mildly – and find themselves on Paris soil after last year’s sparks, with mutual accusations following the success of Ruud (later a finalist against Rafael Nadal) in the quarterfinals.

The prediction

The two made it to the quarterfinals differently. Ruud won in three sets against a tough opponent on clay, Nicolas Jarry. While Rune had a bad time against Francisco Cerundolo and won in five sets, in the decisive tie break. A long and tight match that could affect Holger in the match against Casper: will he be able to recover well in time for another match that promises to be balanced and fought? On the other hand, it is also true that the young Dane had not played the second round match due to the withdrawal of Gael Monfils. There is an interesting fact about the precedents between the two players: Ruud has always won the first set, five times out of five. And considering Rune’s efforts with Cerundolo, he could also go to the quarterfinals of Roland Garros in the same way: the odds for Casper’s success in the first set are 1.86 for LeoVegas, 1.83 for Bet365, 1.80 for Better.

The shares of Rune-Ruud

Precedents that see Ruud leading four to one, even if Rune stopped the bleeding by winning the last match, a few weeks ago in the semifinal in Rome: 6-7 6-4 6-2. Previously, Holger had only taken one set from his opponent, last year in Paris (6-1 4-6 7-6 6-3). The match promises to be on the line, with all the main betting sites betting slightly on Ruud: the Norwegian’s victory is given at 1.80 by GoldBet, 1.78 by Novibet, 1.77 by NetBet. While the share for the success of Rune is 2.06 for PlanetWin, 2.00 for Sisal and Bet365.
