Editorial Prediction (July 27, 2025, UTC):

As the match approaches, both players have shown distinct strengths. Altori's superior second serve performance and higher match win rate over the past year suggest a competitive edge. His ability to handle high-pressure situations might prove crucial, given his slightly better breakpoint-saving statistics.

Nonetheless, Nishimoto's head-to-head victory against Altori and stronger first-serve return and breakpoint conversion rates could tilt the scale in his favor if he capitalizes on his opportunities. His previous direct win over Altori shows potential resilience and adaptability in critical matches.

While Altori's performance in deciding sets is impressive, if the match goes the distance, Nishimoto's previous success and tactical advantages, such as returning effectiveness, should not be overlooked. Given the available data and Nishimoto's previous direct victory, he appears slightly more likely to triumph in this upcoming match.
