Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Jannik Sinner: Head to Head
Tsitsipas and Sinner have faced each other just once during their time on tour. Surprisingly their only meeting came at the same tournament and at the same round a year back. Tsitsipas and Sinner faced each other at Italian Open 2019 where the Greek won in straight sets 6-3, 6-2.
Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Jannik Sinner: Prediction
Tsitsipas is a certain favourite to win the match and progress into Round 3 of the Italian Open. But however, Sinner has certainly improved his game in the preceding few months and certainly has impressed many fans. Stefanos Tsitsipas will be wary of the threat the Italian carries but nevertheless should see him off in 2 hard fought sets and progress into Round 3.
Match Prediction– Stefanos Tsitsipas to defeat Jannik Sinner in 2 hardfought sets.
