Betting suggestion:
In our opinion the Czech is an ex-player who still plays a few matches, while the French is still active, although he has lost some intensity. This will be a match of short points due to the physical limitations of both players, so Vasselin might have the advantage, since he can play more intensively in some moments of the match.

Preview
This is a faceoff between two experienced players, Radek Stepanek and Roger Vasselin, in a match for the first round of the Bogota ATP 250, a hard pitch tournament played in Colombia.
Analysis R. Stepanek
Czech Radek Stepanek, after a few months without competing, returns to the courts at 36 years old. Stepanek has been invited by the organization to compete in this tournament. He prefers synthetic pitches and is likely to try to play short points.
Stepanek is a talented tennis player, with good strokes, like a beautiful slice and a good volley, which makes him a good pair player. His biggest problem is that he isn’t as intense as he used to be, due to his age. The intensity level of the professional circuit is much higher than it used to be, so at 36 he doesn’t have to physical ability to keep up, which is a great limitation.
Stepanek hasn’t played many matches this season. He has only won 2 matches and in one of them the opponent forfeited. He is clearly near the end of his career and has no goals in the professional circuit.

Analysis E. Roger-Vasselin
Edouard Roger Vasselin is a 31 year old French tennis player who likes fast pitches, since his style is favourable to short points. Vasselin isn’t in a great moment and has lost a few places in the ranking, so here in Bogota he has a great chance to recover.
Vasselin is an experienced player. He has played about 200 matches in the professional circuit, but registers more defeats than wins. His service isn’t very strong and his volley is typical of the French school. He isn’t a very aggressive player and has oscillations in his intensity and mental strength, apart from having a weak physical ability.
This season his best results have been in the pairs matches. Individually his best results have been at the Le Gosier Challenger.
