Tactical Insights
The key to success in this match will hinge on how each player handles pressure points. Jodar will likely attempt to use his strong forehand and serve to dictate play, pushing Gea to the back of the court.

Both players will need to maintain focus and adapt their strategies dynamically throughout the match.
