Holger Rune vs Marcos Giron Prediction: Putting on the Better Practice and Tonus

Holger Rune, No. 29, and Marcos Giron, No. 67, in the first round of the men's Wimbledon tournament, will meet. Despite the current status of the opponent, the bookmakers are on the side of the American, which in our opinion, is quite logical, considering the recent results of the opponents.

Rune had just two matches on grass before Wimbledon. He lost in Halle to Carreño-Busta in two sets and Eastbourne to Peniston in three games. The grass is not a favorite surface for Rune, unlike the clay, where he showed excellent results this year. Moreover, Holger has not played on grass since 2019. Naturally, he does not have a single career trophy won on the green.

Giron has played five matches on grass this season in three tournaments: Halle, Stuttgart, and Mallorca. The American is 2-3 down, but at Mallorca, Marcos knocked 26th-ranked van de Zandschulp and 52nd MacDonald, losing in three sets to winner Stephanos Tsitsipas, No. 6. Obviously, Giron is doing well both with playing practice and his current form.

Let's bet on playing practice and better shape regardless of rankings in this duo. We've already pointed out that Giron performed well on grass in June 2022. In contrast, Rune, one of the most talented young tennis players, failed on the grass. Let's assume that Rune can win a game against Chiron, but no more than that, we bet on No. 67.
