2/27/13 Matchup Daniel Brands / Mikhail Youzhny

[KushMoney]

Thoughts on this matchup?

[lucasdawg]

i think youzhny. brands wasnt that great in his last match, in the first set tie breaker he was 6-2 down and won it 9-7. dont think luck will be on his side every match.

[KushMoney]

in 2 or 3 would you say?

[MagicDiceFlow]

Don't forget Youzhny retired from his last match due to a hip problem.

[KushMoney]

Oh yeah that was his 2nd last match I believe on the 11th, also played on the 25th

Yep on the 11th was when he retired.

I didnt like the way he looked against a weak Kavcic last match.

[lucasdawg]

yeah he lost 6-1 in the first. didnt know he was previously injured. but 3 sets if he does win looks too tough for him to win straight

[samus82]

Youzhny was very average against Kavcic last match having retired the previous match. Brands has a solid serve so Youzhny won't have as many chances to win points on the Brand's serve.

For me there are way too many unknown factors here, I would leave this one well alone.

[gaebiskon]

wouldn't touch youzhny at these odds.
