Casper Ruud vs Marin Cilic prediction

Considering Ruud's form and his recent results on clay, he will be considered the favorite to win the match. Seven out of the Norwegian's eight career titles have come on the red dirt. Cilic, however, has been a bit of a giant killer in the French Open this year, having beaten two top-10 players in Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev. Hence, the lanky Croat cannot be written off. Ruud is an aggressive baseliner and his topspin-heavy forehand will come in handy against Cilic. Cilic's serve has always been his trump card and the 33 aces he fired against Rublev show that the shot is in good working order. The Croat's cross-court forehands have been the main difference-maker for him this fortnight. Both players have been in good form in the tournament so far and the match promises to be a tightly-contested one. While Cilic can put in a tough fight, Ruud's claycourt prowess might just help him cross the finish line. Pick: Casper Ruud to win in five sets. Poll : Who will win the 2022 ATP finals?
