The Serbian tennis player dominates the head-to-head series 7-4, and although he is already qualified, we are sure that he will not relax in this match. On the other hand, Daniil will try to reduce the difference in the number of matches won, and also to say goodbye to the tournament with at least one victory.

Medvedev ATP Finals Analysis
The Russian tennis player’s level continues to plummet, as he lost his second match and is officially out of contention. This will subtract even more points in the ATP ranking and he will lose some positions since he was a finalist in the previous edition, and in this one, he will not even pass the group stage.
In the first set, Daniil was not very attentive in his first serve and Tsitsipas converted a breakpoint. After losing the first set 6-3, the Russian won a great Tiebreak in the second. The last set was again decided in a tiebreak, but this time it was Stefanos Tsitsipas who won the match.
