More recently, Tsitsipas beat Schwartzman in Cincinnati. In our opinion, nothing has drastically changed with the balance of power in this pairing in such a short period of time. What’s more, it’s worth noting that Shwartzman is performing noticeably worse in the second half of the season than he did at the beginning of the year.
The last head-to-head encounter between the two players was a short one. We expect the next encounter to follow a similar pattern. Schwartzman is performing poorly in the second half of the season. Last week, for example, he lost quite easily to Mikael Ymer. We believe that Tsitsipas will be able to upset Diego again in two sets.
Tsitsipas had an unexpectedly poor showing at the US Open, which he left after the opening match, losing to Daniel Galan Riveros (0-6, 1-6, 6-3, 5-7) in four sets.
He was perhaps tired after a strong showing at the Cincinnati Masters, where he reached the final. Tsitsipas helped the Greek team in the Davis Cup last week, winning twice against Tunisia.
Tsitsipas has played at least 21 games in eight of his last ten matches at exhibition tournaments.
Schwartzman has been playing without much consistency this season. Although at the beginning of the year, the Argentine managed to play in two finals. First at his home tournament in Buenos Aires and then in Rio de Janeiro.
In recent results, Schwartzman reached the third round of the US Open. Last week, Diego took part in the Davis Cup where he could do nothing against Mikael Ymer of Sweden (2-6, 2-6).
Schwartzman has failed to win a set in seven of his last ten matches against opponents with strong serve.
