Dusan Lajovic vs Jason Kubler Pick – Tennis Prediction & Odds 4/26/23

Dusan Lajovic will meet Jason Kubler in the First Round of the 2023 Madrid Masters. The match will be played on Wednesday April 26th, 2023.

70th ranked Dusan Lajovic is unseeded here at the 2023 Madrid Masters, and will see his ranking rise as a result of his heroics last week, where he captured the Banja Luka Open. The Serbian won his hometown title by upsetting opponents such as Novak Djokovic and Andrey Rublev in the Final, and his confidence will be at an all-time high. While his results haven’t been the best lately, he is a very dangerous player on clay, and despite his advancing age has a very solid game. He is the favorite here against Jason Kubler, and should be favored to advance.

Like his opponent Dusan Lajovic, Jason Kubler is unseeded at the Madrid Masters. The Aussie has had a rough time recently due to injuries, but started the year with a bang, capturing the Australian Open doubles title. However, that success has not really translated to singles, and to make matters worse he prefers hard courts to the clay. There is no denying his talent, but he is in for a tough time here.

This match should be an easy win for the Banja Luka champion, Dusan Lajovic. Even without the confidence of winning the title, he would have been heavily favored on this surface, and his game should wear Jason Kubler down. Lajovic hasn’t always been the most reliable, but backing him to win outright should pay dividends here at the 2023 Madrid Open.
