Casper Ruud of Norway is set to resume his campaign on Wednesday, facing Dominic Stricker of Switzerland in the second round of the 2025 EFG Swiss Gstaad Open.
Ruud, the two-time French Open runner-up, will be playing his first match since losing to Nuno Borges in the second round of this year’s Roland Garros 2-6, 6-4, 6-1, 6-0. Ruud had been nursing a knee injury throughout the clay-court season, which he aggravated in his match with Borges. Ruud skipped the grass-court season, including the Wimbledon Open, to give his injured knee more time to recover. Ruud certainly hopes that the four weeks of rehab will be enough time for his injury to fully heal and restart a promising campaign that saw him capture his first career “Big Title” at the Madrid Open.
Stricker advanced to the second round of the Gstaad Open after surviving a three-set tussle with Pierre-Hugues Herbert 4-6 6-4 6-2 in the first round. Stricker surged back from an opening set loss, sweeping the next two sets by amping up the intensity of his attacks and reducing the number of errors. The Swiss finished the match 33 first serve points and 9 aces.

Our Casper Ruud vs Dominic Stricker Prediction
Why should you pick Dominic Stricker to win? – Ruud faces a tricky opponent in his first match off a knee injury. Stricker is coming into the match after claiming his 11th win on clay this year, beating Pierre-Hugues Herbet in a competitive three-set match. Meanwhile, it is yet to be seen if Ruud is indeed 100 percent ready to start the grind. Besides, Ruud holds a 0-1 head-to-head record against Stricker, losing to the Swiss 6-4 3-6 7-6(1) in the second round of the Swiss Indoor Basel. On Wednesday, he will face Stricker again in Switzerland for the second time. Regardless of the condition of his knee, Ruud should brace for a difficult matchup against Stricker, who will have the momentum and crowd support on his side. Ruud is no doubt the better player, but the uncertainty surrounding his bad knee makes him a risky pick to cover the spread.
Our betting prediction for Casper Ruud vs. Dominic Stricker: Dominic Stricker +3.5 Games.
