Betting OVER. Coppejans' defensive baseline game on clay, evidenced by his 70% hold/25% break rates against similar-ranked opponents, forces extended rallies. Royer's streaky power struggles to consistently break elite clay courters, resulting in tight sets. The O/U 22.5 line is too soft for a clay encounter between two grind-oriented players; a 7-6, 6-4 score already tips it. Expect prolonged deuce games and at least one tie-break or a decisive three-setter. 90% YES — invalid if either player suffers early-match physical impairment.
