Jannik Sinner vs Daniil Medvedev prediction

Jannik Sinner broke the all-time record of consecutive Masters 1000 victories set by Novak Djokovic as he reached the semi-finals of the Italian Open. The world number one, who is looking to complete a set of Masters titles, defeated Andrey Rublev in straight sets and has now won 32 straight matches in the series. Sinner made a fast start and went on to win 6-2 6-4.

He now faces Daniil Medvedev. He needed three sets to get past Martin Landaluce. The Russian struggled at the beginning of the match, losing the opening set in just 26 minutes. However, he bounced back to win 1-6 6-4 7-5. 

Sinner leads the head-to-head 9-7, but this will be their first meeting on a clay court after 16 matches. They played each other in the final of Indian Wells this year, with the Italian winning a tight match in straight sets. Medvedev won their first six encounters, but Sinner is now the dominant player in this head-to-head, with nine victories in their last 10 matches.
