Roman, in the third round match of Wimbledon, had no problems with overcoming Pella. The fight against Guido lasted an hour and 49 minutes; Roman won it with a score of 7-6, 6-4, 6-0. During the game, he made 11 aces and one double fault. Safiullin won 79% of the points on the first serve and 72% on the second. Reception stats: 42%/55%, winners/unforced errors 54/26. Before defeating Pella, Roman sensationally beat Bautista Agut in five sets and Moutet in three sets. Overall, the upcoming match for Roman will be his 12th on grass in 2023.

Wimbledon is Shapovalov's favorite major, as only in London he reached the semifinals in 2021, so it should not be surprising that bookmakers consider him a favorite. Before Wimbledon, Denis played three matches in Halle, losing in the third round to Zverev in two games. He knocked Albot, Barrere, and Broady out of the draw in London, failing two sets in three games. The match against Broady lasted three hours and 13 minutes; Denis lost the first game 4-6 but won the next three 6-2, 7-5, and 7-5. He made 14 aces and 14 double faults. He won 71% of his points on the first serve and 48% on the second. Reception statistics: 37%/55%, winners/unforced errors 18/41.

Despite the H2H statistics and the fact that Shapovalov played in the semifinals two years ago, we are on the side of Roman. He defeated strong Bautista Agut in a difficult first-round match. After that, he did not even notice Moute and Pella. Safiullin, as well as Bublik, is in peak form now. We believe that Roman can take revenge for two defeats from Shapovalov on the hard courts tomorrow. We doubt it will be a short match, but we won't be surprised if the players play full five sets.
