On Thursday, August 29, the US Open will host the second day of the second round matches (1/32 finals). In one of the fights, Russian Roman Safiullin will face Italian Matteo Arnaldi. In personal meetings, our tennis player is ahead with a score of 1:0. As for the odds for this match, according to bookmakers, Arnaldi is the favorite in this confrontation. You can bet on the victory of the Italian with odds of 1.69, while Safiullin’s success is estimated at 2.21 points.
The only personal meeting between tennis players took place at the beginning of the current season, in Brisbane, Australia. Then Roman defeated the Italian in the quarterfinals. For the Russian to succeed, two sets were enough – 7:6, 6:2. The match lasted two hours without a minute.
At the moment, the tennis players are in roughly the same form, which makes the outcome of their match unpredictable. Both have never won an ATP tournament. The only difference between them is that Matteo is significantly higher in the ranking than the Russian. At this US Open, Arnaldi, 23, started as the 30th racket in the world, and Safiullin, 27, was ranked 57th.
In the first round of the current US Open, Arnaldi more confidently defeated the little-known American Zachary Svaida – 6:3, 6:2, 6:1. During the match, Matteo served 12 aces, but also made a lot of doubles – 6. As for Safiullin, Roman got the upper hand at the beginning of the tournament over the 18-year-old American Matthew Forbes, who occupies the 1848th position in the ATP rankings. Obviously, the Russian gave in this fight exactly as much effort as was necessary to reach the next round, so in one of the sets he even allowed his opponent to reach the tiebreak – 6:4, 7:6, 6:2.
