We have a nordic battle in the semi-final of ATP Acapulco where Norwegian star Casper Ruud takes on Denmark’s second seed Holger Rune in a match we really look forward to.
Ruud is a slight favourite among the tennis betting sites, and in the end we believe he will reach the final.
Holger Rune comes from a tough quarter-final against Dominik Koepfer where he more than once let the German back into the game. However he looked very sharp in the tie-break and is deservedly in the semis.
Casper Ruud were behind in his match against Ben Shelton but looked impressive in the last two sets and ended up winning 6-7, 6-4, 6-4 against a very tough opponent.
H2H Ruud vs Rune
A bit surprisingly, Ruud has a big advantage over the Dane here with a 5-1 total. The last win was at the 2023 French Open.
It should be mentioned though that this is the first match they play on hard court as all previous meetings were on clay.
