In examining their recent performances, both players have demonstrated distinct strengths. Carboni exhibits a strong match-winning record over the past year and excels in converting breakpoints, which could become pivotal in deciding the match.

Skatov holds a minor advantage in second serve effectiveness and has more experience in higher-level tournaments, potentially giving him an edge in handling pressure.

However, considering Carboni's superior performance during deciding sets and his robust record on hard surfaces, the scales tip slightly in his favor, especially on hard courts.

Based on these evaluations, Carboni appears to be the more likely candidate to emerge victorious in the forthcoming match.
