Nicholas Mejia and Johannus will meet on Monday for the first time at the Knoxville Challenger on Wednesday. Both players have been playing well lately, but Monday has a slight edge because he has been winning more often and for longer.
Mejia, currently ranked 217th, has a respectable record of six titles and a 51% total win rate. However, his recent form has been less consistent, with early exits in his last three games.
Monday, ranked 416th, has also won six titles. His recent form is impressive, having reached the final in his last three events. Notably, his victories over higher-ranked opponents demonstrate his ability to surprise.
Monday will likely win this match because he has been dominant lately and has done well against higher-ranked opponents.
With these factors in mind, the recommended bet for this match is for less than 21.5 games, indicating a potentially close and engaging contest.
