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. 

Frances Tiafoe vs Alexander Bublik tip: Over 37.5 games
