THE PREDICTION
This match could get feisty between two top players currently struggling to find their best form. Former world number nine Fabio Fognini will not be able to re-join the very top of the sport at 35 years old but he is seriously underperforming this season for a player of talents. The current world number 60 famously stunned Rafael Nadal here back in 2015 on his way to the round of 16 but he has lost in the first round in each of his last two appearances to Reilly Opelka and Vasek Pospisil. The conditions suit world number 38 Aslan Karatsev more here in this first meeting with Fognini but he brings a poor 15-21 record into the US Open which is all the more surprising given he started 2022 by winning a third ATP title at the Sydney Tennis Classic. Karatsev burst onto the scene with a miraculous run from qualifying to the Australian Open semi-finals last season, where he lost to eventual champion Novak Djokovic, and he has all the tools required to make the second week in New York. Leave this tough one out of an accumulator but back the Russian to win at least two sets as the just-about likelier victor. A one-off on the match to see five sets may be prove fruitful.
