Dominic Thiem vs Stefanos Tsitsipas – Match Predictions
Contents
As two familiar foes go head-to-head for the 10th time in the last five years, these are our predictions and tips for this match
Dominic Thiem to Win at Least One Set
To be fair, Dominic Thiem isn’t exactly playing his best tennis at the moment. The former US Open champion is coming into this match on the back of three consecutive losses. Taking that into account, it’s no surprise that Stefanos Tsitsipas is the clear favourite to win this match. However, it’s worth mentioning that these players met at the Mutua Madrid Open just over two months ago, and Thiem won the first set in that match. As a matter of fact, Dominic Thiem has five wins in nine previous encounters with Stefanos Tsitsipas; he won at least one set the last four times these players went up against each other. Keeping in mind that this is a best-of-five tournament, we don’t think the former World number 3 will go down in straight sets.
Over 37.5 Total Games
We would like to point out that previous meetings between these players have not been one-sided. In the last eight encounters between these players, nobody has won back-to-back matches. That said, these players have two wins apiece in their last four skirmishes, all of those clashes ended in maximum sets. Taking everything into account, we are fairly confident that both players will win at least one set; and considering the last four meetings between these players went comfortably above the projected total, we are taking the over 37.5 games option.
Dominic Thiem vs Stefanos Tsitsipas Preview
Let’s take a look at both players’ form ahead of this tournament, now that we’ve sorted out our Dominic Thiem vs Stefanos Tsitsipas predictions.
Dominic Thiem
Things have not gone too well for Dominic Thiem in recent months. The Austrian player has lost three matches in a row, with six losses in his last seven matches. Interestingly, the former World number 3 will open his Wimbledon campaign against a familiar foe in Stefanos Tsitsipas; it’ll be interesting to see how he matches up against the Greek player.
Stefanos Tsitsipas
Just like Dominic Thiem, Stefanos Tsitsipas has also struggled to find his stride in recent weeks. The Greek player crashed out in the first round of the Mallorca Open last week, and has lost four of his last five matches. Tsitsipas will hope to get back to winning ways as he takes on a struggling Dominic Thiem on Tuesday.
