Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Arthur Fils Prediction: Fils is underestimated

Prediction for the ATP Lyon Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Arthur Fils match which will take place on May 25th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

For Felix, the upcoming game against Arthur Fils will be only the 4th on the clay surface this season. Before the tournament in Lyon, the Canadian lost two matches in Madrid to Lajovic and Rome to Popyrin. In Lyon, the Canadian already has one victory over Pablo Llamas Ruiz in two sets with a score of 7:5, 6:2 in an hour and 27 minutes. During the game, Felix served six times with 4 double faults and won 83% of points on the first serve and 33% on the second. Return statistics: 39%/59%.

Fils is great with playing practice on the clay surface. Before the Lyon tournament, the Frenchman competed in Bagna Luca, Madrid, Aix-en-Provence, Rome, and Bordeaux. Fils has two wins in Lyon; the first time, Arthur was stronger than the Chinese Zhang, then played 11 games against Ymer, when the Swede withdrew from the match with a score of 6:5 in favor of Arthur in the first set. For 11 games, Fils did not serve and won 70% of the points on the first serve and 50% on the second. Return statistics 42%/43%.

Auger-Aliassime already has problems on the clay surface, with practice and results, but despite this, the Canadian is a favorite. We don't agree with that. Fils is progressing, and he has excellent playing practice on clay and two wins in Lyon. The Frenchman is underestimated and will be able to fight with Felix Auger-Aliassime. At the Masters in Rome, Fils beat the strong Cerundolo, so we believe that Felix is already waiting for a real test in the quarterfinals, which might not end with success.
