American rising star Ben Shelton continues to make waves after defeating Marcos Giron to reach his first final of the season. The Japan Open 2023 will have an interesting conclusion when the 21-year-old takes on Russian veteran Aslan Karatsev, who put an end to Shintaro Mochizuki’s impressive performance in the previous round.

Our favourite Aslan Karatsev vs Ben Shelton predictions

Let’s take a look at the Japan Open odds to make the best tennis predictions today.

Aslan Karatsev to win @ 1/1 (2.00)

The initial Aslan Karatsev vs Ben Shelton prediction is that the Russian player will win the Japan Open final. The 30-year-old has not lost a single set in the previous two rounds.

Ben Shelton, on the other hand, struggled to go through each of the rounds. He needed three sets in three of them to win. In fact, in the semi-finals, he almost fell to Marcos Giron in a second set tiebreak.

Total set: 3 @ 5/4 (2.25)

Three of Ben Shelton’s last four matches were prolonged to a fifth set. The only time the two players clashed, it took four sets to determine who would win.

Although I anticipated Aslan Karatsev to win, keep in mind that he was defeated in the previous head-to-head. So I’m hoping they both put on a terrific show in the Japan Open 2023 and both win at least one set.

Aslan Karatsev vs Ben Shelton odds

Both Aslan Karatsev and Ben Shelton have a 50% chance of winning, according to the biggest bookmakers. Pir generates a little edge over one of the two opponents, but this is the exception.

Both players met in the third round of the US Open a little more than a month ago. The match appeared to be quite tight from the outset, and after two sets, the score was level at 1-1. However, Ben Shelton raised the tempo, and Aslan Karatsev was unable to keep up.
