At the ATP event in Almaty, it's time for the final, which will be contested by Daniil Medvedev, who is the current world number five and the man who won the trophy last year, and Nikoloz Basilashvili, who has never won this tournament and who is the current world number 128. On paper, this really is an open-and-shut case.
The early lines ahead of this match show that Daniil Medvedev is a massive favorite, and rightly so. Could he be the subject of even stronger support, though? For our money, the answer is justifiably so, leaving us to conclude that 'Daniil Medvedev to Win 2-0' is a solid option at a price of -149. The Russian has been in fine form in Almaty, while his recent form against much lower-ranked players in general is impossible to criticize.

Our Daniil Medvedev vs Nikoloz Basilashvili Prediction
Let's be completely honest, it would be a massive disappointment if Daniil Medvedev fails to get the job done here. The Russian knows all about winning this event, doing so last year, and he's in more than good enough form to retain his crown.
Can the world number five defend his title by winning in straight sets? His performances at the event so far would absolutely suggest so, as would his recent record (five wins from five against non-top-15 players) against much lower-ranked players.
