Kolar - Giustino

Challengera Antalya

In the first round of the Challenger in Antalya, a duel between Zdenek Kolar and Lorenzo Giustino awaits us. This will be a very difficult tournament for all players, considering that it is played on clay and the conditions for that are not very favorable.

Kolar is in very bad shape at the moment, he finished badly last year and so he started this one, he has a total of 6 tied defeats without a single set won. This year he was defeated in the qualifiers for AO by Barrere and in Istanbul by Rinderknech.

Giustino was eliminated in the second round of qualifications for the AO by Goya as well as in the second round of the Challenger in Istanbul by Hoang this year. He won all of his 3 times in mutual matches, did not lose a single set and all three matches were played. 2019.

I would give a big advantage to Giustino in this match, Kolar is in a very bad rhythm, there is no way out of his crisis, he played three times with Giustino, he didn t take a single set, so I don t think now is the time to break that series.
