Andrey Rublev vs Cameron Norrie Prediction: Will Rublev be able to get a win?

In the framework of the round of 32 of the tennis tournament in Beijing, China, world No. 6 Andrey Rublyov will meet with ATP No. 16 Cameron Norrie. The guys met each other four times, all matches were held on hard courts, and the score of the confrontation was 2:2.

After the US Open, Andrey played only one official match at the Laver Cup, losing to Fritz in two sets. At the Majors, the Russian reached the quarterfinals, i.e., he performed well and lost to his compatriot Daniil Medvedev only in the round of 8. In general, after the end of the ground part of the season for Rublev, the upcoming tournament will be the fifth hard-court tournament, except for the U.S. Open. All the others for Rublev were unsuccessful.

For the Briton, the tournament in Beijing will be his second on Chinese soil. Before the capital, the Briton played two matches in Zhuhai, where he was stronger than Polmans but weaker than Karatsev. The match against Aslan lasted two hours and 23 minutes, and Norrie lost it in two games exclusively on tie-breaks. During the game, Norrie served nine times with no double faults and won 76% of points on the first and 61% on the second.

Norrie's recent results show that the Briton lacks the best sporting shape. While Rublev played well in New York, the Russians were not allowed to prove himself at the Laver Cup. If Karatsev beat the British five days ago, then what will prevent Rublev from beating Cameron? Moreover, Rublev has already beaten the British representative twice on Tour, and in both matches, Rublev did not lose a set.
