This is a match that caught my eye as I smell nice value on underdog home player.
Laaksonen W/L record is good for last few months but if you look with more attention, there is clear that the lower level tournament matches he played doesn't qualify him in a match with a top 100 player. Did not beat a good player in a long time really.
But a very interesting point is the ability of Laaksonen to play well at home and to play well against top guys. It is often the case with him, when he gets the chance against a higher ranked player, it is often a good match and made a couple of heroics when he played in Davis Cup for Switzerland.
Laaksonen owns a good serve. The package is there to play well, his problem is more mentally.
He will get a lot of support. Switzerland does not have many players to cheer for, it will be a late match, I think arena will be packed. Fans will remember Laaksonen playing good in Davis Cup. Great atmosphere will give Laaksonen a push.
With good serve and home factor Laaksonen can make a tight match against Young ... a player with ups and downs who will probably not be at his best in the first match.
Young is not playing well at the moment and that is another reason to play handicap on home player.
