Learner Tien vs Reilly Opelka prediction
Learner Tien produced a battling display to beat Denis Shapovalov in his home event and advance to the third-round. Shapovalov served for both sets but Tien showed his fighting qualities to break back at those vital moments and win 7-5 7-6. Considering the Canadian was heading into the tournament on the back of a title win in Los Cabos, this was yet another impressive victory from the 19-year-old this season.
He will now play Reilly Opelka who is also coming off the back of a strong win. He defeated Tomas Machac for the first time this year after two previous attempts, coming from a set down to win. There were no breaks of serve in the first two sets, and the American did well to recover from going an early break down in the decider to pull clear and win 6-7 7-6 6-3. Opelka is a former finalist and will be aiming for another deep run this time around.
Tien leads the head-to-head 1-0, defeating Opelka in straight sets in the first-round of the Italian Open this year. This will be their first match against each other on a hard court and both will be confident after commendable victories in the previous round. There’s a strong chance this heads to a decider.
Learner Tien vs Reilly Opelka tip: Both players to win a set
