Command Analysis

Gael Monfils

Monfils has been looking fantastic over the past month. There is still room for improvement, but compared to the start of the tour, the progress is immense. At the current US Open, Gael has not yet experienced any difficulties. In the first round, he confidently outplayed the clay-court specialist Federico Сoria (6-3, 6-2, 6-2), and in the second round, he defeated Steve Johnson (7-5, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4).

Jannik Sinner

Sinner had quite comfortable opponents at the US Open so far. Nevertheless, the Italian lost one set to each of them. This raises concerns about Sinner's form. In the first round, Sinner won over the Australian Max Purcell (6-4, 6-2, 4-6, 6-2). In the second round, he was set to play against the 18-year-old Zachary Svajda, and the opponents spent over 3.5 hours on the court (6-3, 7-6, 6-7, 6-4).

Tip and bets
Monfils is looking great. Sinner might be the favourite, but his matches at the US Open have been quite difficult for the Italian player. Sinner made too many mistakes against much weaker opponents. Moreover, the last head-to-head match ended in Monfils' victory in straight sets.
Our prediction - Monfils to win
Both matches between these opponents were quite short, but we don't believe that this will be the case in this fixture. We predict at least four sets in this match.
