Friedsam A-L. vs Brockmann T. J.

Published reasoning

Estimated probability: 74%. Friedsam took a set in 5/6 recent completed hard matches, including two 2-0 wins over Kulikova and a 1-2 loss to Krejcikova. Brockmann has sets in 3/4 but lost 0-2 to 1307-ranked Djoubri on October 2 and wins came against weaker opponents. Main risk: both just won 2-0 against weak opposition, Brockmann's sample is small and Friedsam lost 0-2 to Montgomery. Rankings 260 versus 341 and model 67% give support; Friedsam's two old H2H wins, only one on hard, are secondary.
