Taylor Fritz vs Jordan Thompson – Match Predictions

The quarter-finals of Citi Open bring us a few interesting matchups, including this one. So, here are our top ATP Citi Open predictions for Fritz vs Thompson:

Taylor Fritz to Win 2-0

At the hard courts in Atlanta and now in Washington, Taylor Fritz only dropped two sets in the last six matches. He is 9th in the ATP rankings and the first seed here, while Thompson is 71st. He is playing in front of the home crowd and against an opponent that never won a title at the ATP tour level. So, all things suggest that we will see an easy win for Fritz, even though this match will be played just a few hours after Fritz ended a tough duel against Andy Murray in the previous round.

Set One Total Games: 9-10 Games

While it might be tough for Fritz to get back on court just hours after his previous match, it might be an advantage in some sense since he will be in rhythm. So, we can see him entering this match in good form and high on confidence and given the difference in quality between him and Thompson, we don’t see first set going over 10 games.

Taylor Fritz vs Jordan Thompson Preview

Now that we provided you with our favourite tennis betting tips for this match, let’s take a closer look at the recent form for both players:

Taylor Fritz

The American entered this tournament as the top seed and as one of the main favourites to win it. In fact, according to the current Citi Open odds, he remains the top candidate to go all the way. The 25-year-old is currently 9th in ATP rankings, but he is not having the best of seasons since he failed to get past third round at any of the Grand Slams so far and only won two titles at lower tournaments, one of which was Atlanta Open, which was played right before Citi Open.

Jordan Thompson

At the moment, Jordan Thompson sits in the 71st place in the ATP rankings, which is not that far off his best ranking back in 2019 when he was 43rd in the ATP list. The Australian is still hoping for his first title on the ATP tour and we might see that happen in Washington, although there are still some tough obstacles ahead of him. Thompson did win a couple of challenges this season.
