Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Dennis Novak: Preview

Dennis Novak

Stefanos Tsitsipas has been quite consistent with his performances in the Tour making it to the finals at two consecutive ATP events of the year. After his shocking exit at the US Open, he reached the finals of the Astana Open but lost to the 21-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic. He also couldn’t win in the finals of the Stockholm Open against Holger Rune.

He has already won two titles on the Tour. He defended his Monte-Carlo Masters crown to win his first title of the year. The Greek claimed his second trophy of the year at the Mallorca Championships. He is still looking for his third ATP title of the year. But hadn’t performed well at the four Grand Slam events of the year. He is regarded as one of the upcoming stars of the coming generation.

Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Dennis Novak: Prediction

Stefanos Tsitsipas

Tsitsipas will be the favorite going into the match and will likely register a comfortable win despite Novak being a local player. The World No 6 has had incredible and consistent performances throughout the season and has much more experience than his opponent who is yet to win a single ATP title.

Although the Greek has made unforced errors a number of times, he hasn’t lost to players ranked far lower than him for a while now. This will be the first time both players will be playing against each other. Their head-to-head stands at 0-0.

Prediction: Tsitsipas to win in 2-sets.
