Not much wisdom in this pair. Leo might still be a clay player in everyone's minds, but he played his best tournament this season on concrete. Of course, his serve and aggressiveness would help in any conditions. In his first match here, against Nieminen, he only gave his first break-ball when serving for the match. He lost his serve then, but got the win he deserved through a tie-break in straight sets. Besides that little mental mistake, Mayer showed a lot in his serve, and announced he'll base a lot on that. It's really important that his second serve was convincing, too. Anderson lost a set and a break against Query, and only got four return points till then. Nieminen invented the return for him, and the Finn didn't even get close to the Argentinian's serve in that one game. On the other hand, Anderson's got a much better serve than the Finn, and that's the serve Kevin based his career on, in combination with the forehand. I don't think he'll have many chances on the return here. Both players rely on their serves as their primary weapon, Anderson can vegetate on the return, Mayer be too aggressive and make mistakes, meaning - vegetate as well. I see two intense sets here in the worst case scenario, which means this bet would be a success. Both players should have a really bad day when it comes to serving to make this bet a loss, and I'll easily accept that supposed risk.
