Prediction for the ATP Estoril Casper Ruud vs Sebastian Baez game which will take place on April 7th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

For Casper, the Estoril tournament is the first clay tournament of the season. In general, we note that Casper started poorly in 2023 and has the fifth position in the ATP ranking, only thanks to last year's successes. Before Estoril, Ruud played two Masters in Indian Wells and Miami, and both were unsuccessful for the Scandinavian. In Portugal, Casper played one match against a local player, Souza. The game lasted two hours and 15 minutes, and Ruud won 2:1 (4:6, 6:2, 6:2). During the game, he served four times with two double faults, winning 69% of points on the first serve 64% on the second. Casper had the following return statistics: 44% / 49%.

For Baez, the Estoril tournament is not the first one in the season. Before that, he played in many competitions in South America. Sebastian had two games in Portugal, winning Albot and his compatriot, Cachin. The game against Cachin was a 2-set match, but the guys played a tie-break in the second game. During the game, Baez did not make aces with one double mistake. He won 58% of the points on the first serve and 62% on the second. Return statistics: 36%/73%.

Casper performs more and more often on hard, unlike Baez, who was looking forward to the start of the clay season in Europe. At the same time, Baez has good practice playing on the ground because he has played in many tournaments in South America and has two matches already in Estoril. Ruud is waiting for a challenging game, which will likely be a 3-sets one.
