Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-4.5) for Tsitsipas – 1.55.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 36 – 1.83.
On grass, Thompson has every chance to put up a fight against Stef. After all, Tsitsipas seems to be tired. At least in his last match, he didn’t perform at his best.
If Tsitsipas gave up one game to Ritschard, he must do so against Thompson. Jordan is a more skilled tennis player than Alexander. In addition, Jordan’s form is now excellent. At the very least, he should put up a good fight against the favourite.
Thompson had a resounding victory over Roberto Carballes-Baena (6-4, 6-1, 6-1) in the first round.
If there was any resistance in the first set, Roberto gave up the second and third almost without a fight.
This result is hardly worth paying attention to. Carballes-Baena is not the kind of player who can cause trouble on grass.
Thompson had two great British Challengers in the first half of June. In Surbiton, he took the title and Nottingham reached the final. However, there were setbacks too, of course. In Mallorca, for example, Jordan lost in the first round to Sebastian Baez (3-6, 4-6).
Thompson reached the third round of Wimbledon last year.
Tsitsipas made it through the first round at Wimbledon for the first time since 2018. Previously, on three occasions out of four, he had dropped out after the opening match.
This time, Stefanos started by beating Alexander Ritschard (7-6, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4). However, the victory was not as convincing as expected.
It’s a good enough start. Especially the previous week was quite a busy one for Tsitsipas. He took his first title on grass when he won the tournament in Mallorca.
In 4 of Tsitsipas’ last 7 matches, more than 10.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Over 9.5” with the odds of 1.58.
