Match Predict – Handicap (+2) for Nadal
Nadal has lost any chance of getting out of the group, so Rafa will play without any pressure in the upcoming match. In our opinion, he will be able to win because of this. Especially since Nadal has beaten Ruud already this season and did it with confidence. All the more, Ruud has secured a place in the semi-finals, so he can lose this match.
Total Games – Under 24
The two tennis players met at Roland Garros this season and Nadal won that match convincingly in three sets. We expect this match to be a fast one, so we’ll bet on the total of less games in this match.
Preliminary review and pre-match prediction for Rafael Nadal vs Casper Ruud
Rafael Nadal:
As expected, Nadal proved unprepared to fight for the title at the ATP Finals, which, by the way, he had never won before.
In the first match, Rafa lost to Taylor Fritz (6-7, 1-6). In the first set, there was a struggle, it even came down to a tie-break. In the second set, Taylor only gave Nadal one game.
In the second round, Nadal lost to Felix Auger Aliassime also in two sets (3-6, 4-6). Felix was very confident on his serve, so Rafa had no chance to win here.
Nadal lost four matches in a row for the first time in a long time. Before the final, he failed to qualify for the fourth round at the US Open and did not win a single match at the Masters in Paris. After suffering an abdominal muscle injury at Wimbledon, he has never been able to return to optimum form.
Nadal has won at least a match in eight of the previous ten ATP Finals.

Casper Ruud:
Ruud, meanwhile, has already secured a place in the semi-finals of the final. Interestingly, he did so for the second year in a row.
In the first match, Casper defeated Felix Auger Aliassime (7-6, 6-4). It can’t be called a sensation, but after Casper’s autumn failures it seemed that nothing good awaited him. However, in the end, Ruud played a perfect match.
The US Open 2022 finalist defeated Taylor Fritz (6-3, 4-6, 7-6) in the second round. In principle, it was an even match, but it just so happened that it was Casper who played slightly better in the tie-break of the third set.
Ruud has won 9 of his 12 matches against left-handers this season.
First to the final four 👏
