Were you surprised by Rublev's confident win against Schwartzman? We weren't, either. Rublev is obviously gaining form and with all due respect to the Argentine is a lower level player, the more so since he's not playing on the hard court. In the first set Andrey won 6-1, crushing the Argentine. In the second part there was more fight, the set lasted an hour and 20 minutes and the world’s No.5 won it 7-5. Before Schwartzman, Rublev knocked Nakashima out of the draw.

Cameron Norrie form

The San Diego tournament is Norrie's best since Los Cabos in July that the Briton won. After losing to Nishikori in Washington, Norrie was eliminated in the first round ofToronto, Cincinnati, and the U.S. Open tournaments. However, in San Diego, Cameron has 3 wins in a row over Koepfer, Evans, and Shapovalov. Denis Shapovalov is in the top 20, and Norrie allowed the Canadian only four games. On the other hand, the match against Evans lasted almost two hours and they played a tie-break in the first set.

Expert Betting Tips

A year ago Norrie and Rublev met in the quarter-finals of a St Petersburg tournament and Rublev did not leave the British player a chance, beating Norrie 6-2, 6-1. Andrey has only improved since then, ranked No. 5 by the ATP, and he believes this is not the limit. It's really a long way to catch up with Zverev, the German seems unattainable this season. But it is important to keep the current position for Rublev, and for that, he needs to keep winning not only in matches but also in tournaments. We offer the following bets for this match: TU (22.5) for 1.72, H1 (-3.5) for 1.86.
