Starace ranked 45 ATP against Luczak ranked 93 ATP .Looks like easy win for Starace . I saw Starace playing , a tall player but fast moves . He is good on clay , no doubt about it and should have advantage over Luczak .Starace isn’t very good server but decent one . He likes to play from baseline and likes long rallies . He is classic clay court player . He plays most of the games on clay , it is his favourite surface (73 % of the games played on clay ). On clay he is 158 -83 pretty good performance if you ask me but  There is one thing that I don’t like at him : he is too defensive . He likes to wait opponent’s mistake .

            Peter Luczak is a little older player but what I like is that he plays offensive . He serves and immediately comes to the net trying to finish point as fast as possible . Although he played many games on clay ( 51 % of his games ) and he is good enough on clay ( 115-66 wins-losses) he is underrated in this game . This happens because he played very few games last year on clay : just 4 games .

            Current odds are clearly in Starace’s favour but Luczak shouldn’e be underestimated . He still can win a game .

My bet:

  Starace-Luczak AH games 0:5 away win @ 1.90 GB 7/10
