Jan-Lennard Struff vs Daniil Medvedev prediction
Jan-Lennard Struff progressed to the third-round of Wimbledon for the second straight year after a dramatic win over Brandon Nakashima. Struff saved a match point as Nakashima served for the match at 5-4 in the deciding set, with the German holding his nerve in the 10-point tiebreak to win 4-6 7-6 (6) 7-6 (5) 6-7 (6) 7-6 (7).
He will now face former world number one Daniil Medvedev. The Russian advanced to the next round after a four set win over Daniel Merida. The 2021 US Open champion started poorly and went behind, but he did raise his game as he went on to win 3-6 6-3 7-5 6-2.
Medvedev leads the head-to-head 8-1 and 2-1 on grass. They have met twice before at Wimbledon. Medvedev won their first-round meeting in 2021, before following it up with another four set victory in the third round three years later. It’s a quick turnaround for Struff after his exploits in round two, and Medvedev still possesses enough quality to get the job done.
