Andrey Rublev vs Alexander Bublik Prediction: The Kazak could lift the trophy

An unexpected final awaits us in Germany. The player originally from Kazakhstan, Bublik Alexander started the tournament with a positive form but none would expect him to reach this stage, having beaten out of Sinner and Zverev, 2 of the most talented top 10 players. The opponent, Andrey Rublev is one of the top in the circuit being in the top 10 in the last 3 years. While the grass is the best surface for the Kazak player with his big serve and attacking game, Rublev is an overall player who has reached the best results on clay and hard courts during his career.

The Russian powerful player was the highest seeded here in Halle and did meet the expectations by reaching the final. During the tournament he beat Yu, Hanfmann, and Bautista who had a great run of games recently and he is now reaching the final where he will play against Bublik, an unusual player, a different match from the ones he previously had this week. He has all the skills to make it difficult for him but Bublik on his day can beat anyone.

What a performance for the Kazak in the semifinal versus the most quoted Zverev. Now he has reached the final this week in Halle and the opponent isn’t, on paper impossible for him to beat. Bautista is an experienced player on all courts, being previously a top 10 but he passed his best years as he just turned 35. A long week of battles can be difficult for him to give him fresh legs for the final so Bublik has a real chance to win this match.

We believe Bublik can win this tournament even if his opponent in the final is strong enough to create all sorts of problems for him. His fantastic serve worked all week and he just needed to keep entertaining the crowds with his unusual game to make it to the trophy.
