Prediction and betting tips

Sebastian Korda eliminated the seventh-seeded player Daniil Medvedev in Round 3. Also, he defeated Huber Hurkacz in the most recent game. He has won two out of three H2H fixtures against Karen Khachanov with all to nil and finished the 2022 season perfectly with two finals in the last two tournaments.

Karen Khachanov started the 2023 season well. He has won seven of the last nine matches, but he has met only two rivals from the top 30 ATP and lost one of these fixtures. He is in good condition, but I believe that Sevastian Korda will be a bit stronger this time because his recent play was a bit better.
