Karen Khachanov vs Radu Albot Prediction: Karen to Avoid Another Blockbuster

Prediction for the ATP Roland Garros match, which will take place on May 31. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Karen Khachanov

Karen failed at the Rome Masters already in his first match Barrere. Before that, however, he reached the quarterfinals in the Masters but lost only to No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz, the eventual winner. In the first RG round, Khachanov played a five-set blockbuster against Lestienne. He began that meeting extremely hard, giving up the two sets 3-6, 1-6. But Karen improved and won the three sets 6-2, 6-1, 6-3. He made 15 aces and two double errors, winning 65% of points on the first serve and 43% on the second. Receiving stats: 48%/51%, winners/unforced errors 57/50.

Radu Albot

Albot has good practice on clay. In Paris, the Moldovan had four matches, three qualifiers, and one in the main draw, knocking out Coria, Peniston, Ugo Carabelli, and Kypson. The last match lasted nearly three hours and was won 6-3, 6-2, 4-6, 6-1 by Radu. Kipson is No. 329, so we should not pay much attention to this victory. Albot fired twice and made seven double errors, winning 69% of his first serve points and 41% of his second. Reception stats: 50%/59%, 44/27 winners/unforced errors.

Expert Betting Tips

Although Karen played five sets in the first round, we're siding with him. Khachanov will have no problems in his match against Albot. He failed the first two sets against Lestienne but won the last three easily. So Karen needed time to adapt to the local courts. Once he got used, Lestienne had no chance of success. Khachanov will try to avoid another long match and win quickly. In the upcoming game, we will not be surprised if Albot cannot win even one set.
