Contents
Stefanos Tsitsipas To Win
Tsitsipas has been a force to reckon with on the ATP circuit. He has been getting starts in tournaments but failed to build on them. Thanks to a walkover over Richard Gasquet, he has received a leg up in Miami without much suffering. He has won six of his seven duels with Khachaanov and should have enough in the tank to get past him in the third round.
2-1 to Stefanos Tsitsipas
Czeck ace Cristian Garin gave Tsitsipas a tough time in the second round and the pedigree of Khachanov will surely make this bout more interesting. Based on the duo’s recent form, expect a tough battle that extends into the third set. This will be in line with their prior meetings. Khachanov has taken a set of Tsitsipas in four of their five meetings and it will be a likely scenario this time around.
