Auger-Aliassime vs Rune Prediction

The young Dane is playing aggressively these days and can compete on baseline with Auger-Aliassime from the back of the court. It’s a difficult match-up to predict, but given their previous results, it should be a great final. The two players are comparable in most areas of their games, but the Canadian has more playing experience, which may ultimately work to his advantage.
