Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Felix Auger Aliassime prediction
Stefanos Tsitsipas defeated Valentin Royer to book his place in the second-round of the Cincinnati Open. The former world number three edged clear in the first set and recovered after squandering a 5-2 lead in the second to win 7-6 (5) 7-5. He is back inside the world’s top 50 in the rankings after winning his first ATP title in 16 months at the Swiss Open.
He now takes on second seed Felix Auger Aliassime. The 25-year-old did not feature at this home event due to injury, having felt discomfort in his back in the days leading up to the Canadian Open. However, he is now set to make his first appearance on the tour since his epic five set loss to Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon quarter-finals.
This head-to-head goes back to 2019, with Tsitsipas leading 7-3 and 4-1 on outdoor hard court. He is not the player he once was, while Auger Aliassime has improved a lot over the past 12 months, but this is still set to be an intriguing encounter between the two players.
