The Stakes of the match Alex Lanier Koki Watanabe

A place in the grand final is at stake for both men. No advantage to level of motivation

State of form

Alex Lanier once again played a high-level match when he faced Loh Kean Yew in the quarter-final. The young French player went through all the emotions by winning the first set before giving up physically at the end of the second set to finally save a few match shuttlecocks at the end of the third set and win at the end of the suspense (21-18 15-21 24-22). Victim of a yellow card then a red card (which cost him a penalty point in the middle of the third set), the Frenchman continues to learn on the international circuit and will have to manage the sequence of matches by taking less than time between exchanges, which the referee criticized him for his quarter-final. In recent months, Alex Lanier has truly exploded on the international circuit, breaking through definitively with victories over the biggest players. In Japan, he clinched his first Super 1000 title by dominating Chou Tien Chen in the final, an opponent who deprived him of the final last week at the Arctic Open. Regularly in good shape, Lanier took the upper hand over Ng Ka La at the start of the tournament before taking advantage of the retirement of Viktor Axelsen, who was ill.

Disappointing at the Japan Open by failing in the first round against Lin Chun-Yi in front of his fans, Koki Watanabe has recovered very well in recent weeks by displaying an unprecedented level to reach his best world ranking: 13th place. . The Japanese already crossed paths with our Frenchman during the Canadian Open which he won last summer to win his biggest career title with a victory in the Super 500. Since then he has displayed incredible form on the circuit by reaching the quarter-finals of the China Open against his compatriot Naraoka before reaching the last four of the competition last week at the Arctic Open by losing to the future winner Chou Tien Chen. On the courts of Denmark this week, he got the better of Lee Chia-Hao in 2 sets (21-15 21-15) before scalping world No. 6 Vitidsarn, recent silver medalist at the last Olympic Games (21 -13 21-19). In the quarter-final, he took advantage of the abandonment of the Chinese Guangzu Lu. No fitness advantage

Alex Lanier Koki Watanabe Match Predictions 1-2

Alex Lanier spent more than an hour and a half on the courts during his semi-final against Loh Kean Yew to get through. His particularly difficult sequence after his good run last week should weigh heavily on our Frenchman. The Japanese will arrive much fresher for this semi-final after winning his first 2 matches in straight sets and benefiting from the abandonment of the Chinese Lu in the quarter-final. That being said, the Japanese’s rating seems very interesting taking into account that Lanier will have recovered much less physically from his last duel. Victory Watanabe
