Fokina 1-0 (July 2024, hard, 2 sets). Indoor win %’s are better for Fokina.

Cazaux reached the 3rd round last season. 2 tie breaks win over Darderi in the 1st round. 2nd round in Montpellier.

12 month indoor stats favour Cazaux on serve. 2025 stats are closer but he still leads on serve. Return stats are better for Fokina. Recent performances are better for Fokina. Chance of 3 sets.
Back Fokina around 2.00 to 2.20 and remove liability at 1.60.

Match prediction: Davidovich Fokina in 3 sets.

Update: Tight first set. No break points until the 8th game. Cazaux served at 3-4 and went 15-40 behind. If it had potentially been close to the end of the set, I may have laid Fokina but as I favoured him to win, I stayed out. Cazaux recovered.

In the next game, Fokina was 3-40 and 40-A down. I placed a small back on him at 30-40. He recovered to hold and I removed almost all my liability. No more break points in the set and they went to a tie break. Cazaux took a 3-1 lead but Fokina took the tie break 7-5. I kept my small position on Fokina.

I thought pre match that the match could go to 3 sets. I was concerned that Cazaux may be affected by coming so close to taking the set. He was serving first in the second set so I waited. Cazaux was broken in the first game. I removed the last bit if liability and left it to run.

There were no more breaks in the match although Fokina faced 2 break points when serving for the match.

Davidovich Fokina won 7-6, 6-4.
