Frances Tiafoe vs Yannick Hanfmann prediction
Frances Tiafoe’s latest attempt to rekindle some form begins against Yannick Hanfmann in Shanghai.
The American has lost his last four matches and is teetering on dropping outside the top 30 after a tough year on tour.
Hanfmann is a tricky customer too, having upset Lorenzo Sonego 2-6 6-3 6-1 after navigating qualifying with ease.
The veteran German may sit at 150 in the world, but winning breeds confidence and across all levels he has lost just one of his last seven.
Big Foe does lead the match-up 1-0 thanks to a narrow 7-5 7-6 victory in Stuttgart last year, but he’s not in the same form at present and while Hanfmann may not completely pull off the upset, he’s a strong shout to take a set.
Frances Tiafoe vs Yannick Hanfmann tip: Over 2.5 sets
