Elias, Gastao vs
Basic, Mirza

Gastao Elias is a player from Portugal who plays his best tennis on red clay surface , has very good movement combined with big forehand and very dependable backhand wing . Mirza on the other hand prefers to play on faster surfaces such as grass or hardcourt and indoors surface . He doesnt move that well but has a big flat serve that can make a lot of damage on it . On grass he doesnt have the patience or the enough controll on his shots to play lengthy exchanges with players such as Gastao and I think that he will lose it easy in this match against the Portuguese player . I think that the margin is quite small and I thought that Gastao will be a bigger favorite prior to the match .
