Our favourite Lorenzo Sonego vs Jannik Sinner – match predictions

Sonego defeated qualifier Nicolas Moreno De Alboran in straight sets. He now has a tough task on his hands as Toronto Open winner, Sinner arrives on the back of a 3-0 thumping of Yannich Hanfmann. For the latest insights and betting tips on the US Open 2023, be sure to check out our predictions for the ATP men’s event.
Under 35.5 Games @ 4/5 (1.80)
Sonego and Sinner’s meetings earlier in the year have been exciting, to say the least. It was a one-sided affair in Montpellier while a three-set battle ensued in Halle. We are expecting their latest duel to conclude like their first one given Sinner’s impressive form and Sonego’s struggles on the North American hard courts. Sinner finished off Hanfmann within 23 games and we expect his duel with compatriot to not drag as well. Expect this duel to finish within 35.5 games, even if the match goes to four sets.
3-0 to Jannik Sinner @ 1/1 (2.00)
August has been a coming-out party for Sinner as he imposed himself at the highest echelons of the ATP tour. He claimed straight-set victories in the semi-final and the championship game, starting in the same manner against Hanfann at the US Open. In his last meeting with Sonego on the hard courts, he dominated him in style and we are anticipating more of the same in this duel. Expect a 3-0 victory for Sinner as he makes little work of his compatriot.
