Tallon has not won a singles title so far in his career and will be eyeing to change that with a great display in this game. He had a walkover in the quarterfinals and hence is likely to have good energy left in his tank for this game.
Last year's top seed Aslanas been the man to beat so far at #TOM2023- Tata Mahrashtra Open
Aslan Karatsev comes into this one with 6-1,6-2 to win against Pedro Martinez in the quarterfinals and would be motivated to play the same. However, he will be cautious as he had a difficult second-round game with a win via a tiebreaker. He will be cautious not to concede match points, making the game all about concentration.

The game is going to be very interesting as both meet again after a faceoff in the first round UniCredit Firenze Open. In that tournament, Aslan dominated a slightly unfit Tallon, who ultimately left the game in the second set.
Aslan has a ton of experience which is going to help him more in this game. We can expect him to find enough to beat again the spirited Tallon keeping the flow of the game towards him.
