Ilya Ivashka vs Taylor Fritz – Match Predictions
Contents
Over 21.5 Games
Despite facing tough opponents like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, Fritz has emerged victorious in five of his last seven quarterfinal matches this season, solidifying his position as a formidable contender. Given his fondness and succession hard courts, Fritz will be uneasy against Ivashka. This quarter-final encounter is expected to deliver an intense battle that will likely surpass the mark of 21.5 games. Both players are coming into this fixture after hard-fought wins that saw an abundance of games and more of the same is expected in this duel. Fritz displayed his tenacity by battling through a closely contested match that saw 27 games, while Ivashka’s win over Adrian Mannarion had 29 games.
2-1 to Taylor Fritz
Given Fritz’s impressive track record and skillset, he enters the match as the expected favourite to emerge victorious against Ivashka. However, it won’t be a straightforward task, as Ivashka has proven himself to be a formidable opponent who doesn’t back down easily. His performances against Adrian Mannarino and Guido Pella showcased his resilience and fighting spirit, making it clear that he will pose a challenge for Fritz. With Fritz himself needing three sets to overcome Marcos Giron in his previous match, we expect more of the same in this duel. Taking all these factors into consideration, it is plausible to expect a thrilling three-set encounter, with Fritz ultimately prevailing and securing the victory.

Ilya Ivashka
Throughout the 2022 season, the Belarusian has achieved only two victories against top-20 players. Notably, one of those wins came in Geneva last year, where he caused an upset by defeating the then-world #15 Denis Shapovalov in the second round before falling to the eventual runner-up Joao Sousa in the quarterfinals. Ilya Ivashka has reason to be proud of his performances in Geneva this week. He ended his five-match losing streak and successfully defended the quarterfinal points he earned in the tournament last year
Taylor Fritz
The top-ranked American showcased his resilience once again as he made a comeback after dropping the first set in his debut match at ATP Geneva. He faced Marcos Giron in the second round and secured a hard-fought victory with a scoreline of 4-6 6-2 6-3. Notably, Fritz has been consistently impressive on hard surfaces this year, reaching at least the quarterfinals in all five tournaments he played. Surprisingly, he has also demonstrated his skills on clay, performing well at the Monte Carlo Masters and Munich Open.
