Betting on Andrey Rublev | -390 Odds to Win
In the first round of the Australian Open 2023, the Russian overcame Dominic Thiem (Austrian), who entered the tournament on a wildcard and has suffered in recent years with injuries. He managed to finish this match in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. However, in the second round he had a more demanding match against the Finnish, Emil Ruusuvuori, against whom he lost a set and finished 6-2, 6-4, 6-7(2), 6-3.
His statistics for this second match were quite good, with 16 aces and 3 double faults. He had 68% of good first serves, of which he got 77% in his favor.. However, he did not perform as well with his second serve, winning just 48% of points. In total, he had 51 winners in his favor and 50 unforced errors. So, he will certainly need to decrease these unforced errors for this third round match.
This player was favored largely on the strength of his drive and points at the net. In addition, his great repertoire of moves, as well as his keen sense for reading his opponent, helped him to overcome.
Betting on Daniel Evans | +300 Odds to Win
On the other hand, Daniel Evans played four sets in the first round of the 2023 Australian Open against Argentine Facundo Bagnis and beat Frenchman Jeremy Chardy in the second round in straight sets 6-4, 6-4, 6-1. This was certainly a challenge, as he was not an easy opponent.
In this second match against Chardy, the British Evans hit 8 aces and no double faults. His first serve greatly favored him to stay alive and avoid falling with 62% of good first serves and 82% of effectiveness with them. With the second, he obtained 63% of the points. In addition, he also hit 31 winners with only 14 unforced errors, a very good statistic indeed.
In terms of points won, he managed to convert 55% of break opportunities against the Frenchman, as well as 75% of points at the net and 38% of points on his opponent’s serve. Besides, passing shots, lobs, and drop shots helped him win key points.

Rublev vs Evans Prediction
While Daniel Evans is a dangerous opponent and the Russian should not be neglected, it should not be forgotten that he has a better game, a better ranking (which is not for free), and is younger. This gives him all the advantages to overcome in the third round match of the Australian Open 2023 between Rublev vs Evans the Russian player and fifth seed.
Prediction: Andrey Rublev wins in 4 sets.
