Alexander Shevchenko@ 2.67
Shevchenko has been in strong recent form on clay and his aggressive game suits the Bucharest surface, while Van de Zandschulp โ primarily a hard-court operator โ has struggled for consistency on dirt this season and arrives without much momentum, making the Russian live value as an underdog despite the tight ELO gap.
Mariano Navone@ 1.27
The Argentine clay-court specialist (ranked ~36, seeded at this event) holds a massive ELO edge over qualifier-level Moeller and has proven himself on the dirt with multiple Challenger/ATP clay titles; this should be a routine opener at heavy odds-on prices.
