Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Fabio Fognini: Preview
Stefanos Tsitsipas has been one of the best players on the ATP tour this season. He reached the semifinal of the Australian Open before winning his maiden masters title at Monte Carlo.

Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Fabio Fognini: Prediction
Tsitsipas walks into the match as a clear favorite to win it. Although Fognini is a veteran on tour, his recent form has been terrible and he will have to step up his game to challenge Tsitsipas. The Greek is one of the favorites to win the tournament and will just want to stick to his basics to topple Fognini. Expect him to cruise into the Round of 16 without breaking much sweat.
Prediction: Tsitsipas to win in straight sets.
