THE PREDICTION

World number 19 Frances Tiafoe is enjoying the form of his career so far in recent months, with a run to the semi-finals of the US Open last month stopped in five sets by the eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz. The 24-year-old lost to Novak Djokovic comfortably at the Laver Cup two weeks ago but he made amends with a huge three-set victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas to help Team World to a famous first win in the tournament and he will never forget facing, and beating, a doubles team of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal in the Swiss’ farewell. World number 80 Bernabe Zapata Miralles beat Taro Daniel in straight sets on Monday for an impressive opener at the Tokyo Open but this first meeting with Tiafoe looks several steps too far. Back Tiafoe to win outright, probably in two.
