Andy Murray vs Matteo Berrettini Prediction: How will Matteo respond to a charged-up Murray?

Here it is! The FInal of the Stuggart Open and the tournament has served as a brilliant topping before we arrive at the Wimbledon tournament later this month. In the final game of the Open, Andy Murray will face off against Matteo Berrettini. Murray has been on fire throughout the tournament and his experience will play a vital role against a player who entered the tournament as a second-seeded player. Can Matteo pull the rug off a terrific Murray run?

Andy Murray

A groin surgery and a hip surgery haven’t bothered the 35-year-old Brit. He didn’t even get a seed before the game and the athlete has taken it to heart and has made one of the more incredible runs you will see. In the last game, he took down Nick Krygios and made a statement winning the second set 6:2, having an 83% win on the first serve. The first set was relatively competitive as things went to a tiebreaker, which Murray won 7:5.

Then how can we forget what did a round before in what was the first time since 2016 that he beat a top-five seeded player as he took Stefan Tsitsipas 7:6, 6:3 and that is just amazing! He beat Alexander Bublik in the Round of 16, Bublik was another player who entered as a seeded player(7). It is clear that Andy wants to have one more dance before his tennis career is done.

Matteo Berrettini

Matteo is a top-ten player and entered the tournament as the second-seeded player behind Stefan Tsitsipas. The Italian player is on the rise and he is the part of the young generation that is looking to take over after the Federer-Nadal-Murray-Djokovic era is over. This run during the Stuggart Open is barely a surprise and will surely bolster the confidence of the incredible player.

Talking about the run, Matteo began in Round of 16 by beating Radu Albot 2:6, 6:4, 6:3. In the second game, he defeated Lorenzo Sonego 3:6, 6:3, 6:4. So, in the first two games, Matteo made a comeback after being down in the first set. He beat Oscar Otte 7:6, 7:6, winning two tiebreakers. He has shown his strong first-serve and has had 80%+ win percentages twice.

Expert Betting Tips

These two are contrasting players for sure. Murray can persevere with long exchanges and after taking some hits, he is well-versed to boost it up and eke out a win by using his versatile arsenal. Berrettini likes to attack a lot but against someone like Murray, who doesn’t commit too many faults, he will have to unlock more perseverance. However, I see him withstanding the threat of Murray and pulling through. This can go to three sets.
