Frances Tiafoe vs Alexander Bublik prediction
Frances Tiafoe advanced to the third-round of Wimbledon and extended his winning streak to seven matches after coming from a set down to beat Jan Choinski. The American was broken while serving to stay in the first set, handing his opponent the lead. However, Tiafoe responded to win 4-6 6-2 7-5 6-2.
He will now face Alexander Bublik after the Kazakhstani beat Kyrian Jacquet in round two. Bublik required five sets to get past Thanasi Kokkinakis in round one, but this was a far more comfortable match for the world number 11 as he won 6-3 6-4 7-6 (5). He won 84% of his points on first serve.
The head-to-head is 2-2 between the pair, and 1-1 on grass. They played against each other at this stage of the tournament back in 2022, with Tiafoe coming from a set down to win. Tiafoe’s athleticism may give him a slight edge over five sets, and he will be full of confidence after his winning run. However, Bublik cannot be underestimated with that booming first serve of his.
