Casper Ruud vs Quentin Halys Match Preview
World No. 11 Casper Ruud is a three-time Grand Slam finalist. However, the 26-year-old has struggled to maintain consistency over long periods of time. In 2025, Ruud was eliminated in Round-2 at the Australian Open, before reaching the final in Dallas. The Norwegian performed well during the European clay court swing, which included a Masters-1000 trophy in Madrid. Having skipped the events on grass, Ruud had a disastrous outing on the North American hard courts. But a strong performance since last month (Japan Open semis, Stockholm title) has given him a 37-14 record.
Quentin Halys has managed just 12 tour-level main draw wins in 2025. A semifinal appearance in Dubai happens to be the Frenchman’s main highlight of the season. He also reached the French Open Round of 32, alongside pre-quarterfinals in Geneva, Stuttgart and Halle. Since the start of the US Open, Halys has won just one encounter on the circuit. Currently ranked No. 78 in the world, he has a record of 12-22 this year and 47-84 overall.

Casper Ruud vs Quentin Halys ATP Swiss Indoors Basel 2025 Prediction
Ruud is in top form at the moment, and his forehand has looked rock solid. The Norwegian won 80% first serve points or more in all his matches at the Nordic Open Stockholm. Meanwhile, Halys showed some promise at the Rolex Shanghai Masters, but couldn’t get past the Round of 64. The 28-year-old does not have any weapons to get him out of trouble under pressure, and his lack of patience in groundstroke exchanges could bring about his downfall.
Prediction: Casper Ruud in straight sets.
