ATP in Bosnia and Herzegovina is the second clay tournament of the season for Safiullin. Last week, the Russian played a game against Krajinoviс in Monte-Carlo and lost to the Serbian in three sets. Then Roman won the first game on a tie-break but lost in the second and third sets 6:3 and 6:2. During the game, Safiullin served three times with six double faults, won 63% of points on the first serve and 47% on the second. At the return, Roman had the following statistics: 34% / 47%, winners / unforced errors statistics 25/21. Before Monaco, Safiullin played several tournaments in the USA, where he had no success. Last year, Roman played eight games on the clay, six of which he won with two defeats.

But Laslo has already played four clay tournaments in 2023. He started playing on the ground in mid-February and played seven matches in Buenos Aires, Rio, and Santiago: four wins with three defeats from Alcaraz, Lajovic, and Baez. In Monte Carlo, Djere played a match against Hurkacz at a good level and lost to the Pole in three sets. In each game, the guys played tie-breaks. Overall, during the game against the Pole, Laslo made two aces with 10 double faults and won 68% of points on the first serve and 47% on the second. Return statistics: 20%/52%, winners/unforced errors statistics 32/28. In 2022, Djere played 24 matches on the clay: 13 wins with 11 losses.

Djere has a better chance. He has already played eight matches in the clay season, while Safiullin has only played one game in Monaco. Djere played only one game in Monte Carlo, but the match was against Hurkacz, a representative of the first 15 ATP. Laslo lost it, but he was very close to victory, giving the Pole a real fight. Safiullin spends his best matches on hard, but Djere looks good on the clay. Laslo has played many good games in his career on the clay.
