Editorial Prediction (July 29, 2025, UTC):

Tessa enters the match with a decent edge in serve and return statistics, especially performing slightly better on second serves and return points. However, Kretzer's overall match performance in tough scenarios, particularly converting more breakpoint opportunities, indicates his match temperament under pressure might give him a crucial edge.

While Kretzer's slightly higher win rate at the lower tournament levels and ability to face better-ranked opponents might offer insights into his competitive stability, Tessa's more favorable statistics on hard surfaces present optimism, considering the event's surface challenges.

Though both players exhibit comparable pressure-handling capabilities, Kretzer's superior resilience in deciding sets and recent greater success in converting break opportunities may prove pivotal.

Taking into account these comparative advantages, Kretzer appears to be the likely candidate to secure victory in this upcoming match.
