Prediction for the ATP Australia Emil Ruusuvuori vs Daniil Medvedev match which will take place on January 17th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Before the start of the Australian Open, Emil played a good tournament in Hong Kong, where he reached the final, losing to Andrey Rublev in two sets. In the first round, Emil played a match against Kypson, the 183rd-ranked player in the world. In Emil's favor, the game against Kypson lasted three hours and 3 minutes, 4:6, 6:3, 6:4, and 7:6 in Emil's. Ruusuvuori made 19 aces with five double faults and won 86% of points on the first serve and 59% on the second, with a return statistic of 27%/48% and a winners/unforced errors statistic of 62/44.

Medvedev's first round against Atman was not finished. The Frenchman withdrew in the 4th set with the score 2:1 in Daniil's favor. The Russian started the match unsure and lost the first game 5:7, but he won two sets after that. During the match, Daniil made 9 aces with 4 double faults and won 72% of points on the first serve and 58% on the second. Return statistics: 28%/63%, winners/unforced errors 42/32.

The practice should benefit the world number 3, and we expect Daniil to play more confidently on Wednesday than in his first-round match. Ruusuvuori is a familiar and comfortable opponent for Daniil, so we don't expect the Finn to be able to compete with one of the favorites at the start of the majors. Medvedev has a good chance of winning confidently and not losing a game to Ruusuvuori again.
