Prediction and Conclusion

Both players have very limited experience on grass, but their style of play perfectly fits this surface. They are almost 100 spots apart on the ATP rankings list, but the quality gap is not that big. Medjedovic is the reigning NextGen champion, and it is just a matter of time before he reaches the top 50 in the world. Marozsan is four years older and has already reached that status. Both players have excellent serves and will win most of their serving games, so we go with over 22.5 games in total.
