Editorial Prediction (June 17, 2025, UTC):

Assessing the recent performance data highlights Xu's slight edge in second serve performance, which could provide an advantage in maintaining service games. However, Volynets exhibits superior return game stats, capturing key points off Xu's serves more effectively.

Although Xu excels under pressure, with better breakpoint saving capabilities, Volynets' experience at higher event levels could be a crucial factor if the match intensity rises.

Surface preferences show Volynets' proficiency on Clay, yet this will depend on the current match surface, where Xu's favored Hard court play hasn't featured. Xu's record against less formidable opponents raises questions about their consistency on bigger stages.

If this contest extends to a deciding set, Xu's stronger performance in such situations becomes a notable edge.

Given these factors, Xu is more likely to clinch this match based on their recent track record and under-pressure resilience.
