Analysis for Horna-Chardy (Kitzbuhel)

A new week of tennis is beginning again and we have decided to start with brave pick at Kitzbuhel tournament. It is match between Louis Horna of Peru and Jeremy Chardy of France. Horna is big favourite in this match, though we think Chardy have bigger chances of succeeding than how odds say. Classic clay specialist Horna hasn´t had a bad season (balance 16:11) - he had won tournament in Vina del Mar at the beginning of this year, then he played well in Poertschach (he lost to Monaco in semifinals) and ended in the third round in Bastad (he lost to Nicolas Almagro) 2 weeks ago. Rather more interesting are his failures - he was stopped in the first round on clay in Estoril by Sam Querrey, in the second round at Braunschweig by the home hope Julian Reister and at his most unfavour tournament (Wimbledon) by Calleri. Jeremy Chardy started this season with poor results - he usually lost in the first or second rounds and interesting change has come with the tournament in Kosice in June. Chardy has won this tournament (he has defeated eg. Ulihrach or Gremelmayr) and we belive that he has started upturn in his achievements. Chardy has made it from qualifiers at tournament in Amersfoort and he was successful here in Kitzbuhel as well. We belive he can win today´s first round match. The odds over 3.5 surely have value.
