Stefanos Tsitsipas has a chance to reach only his second ATP Tour outdoor hard court quarter-final of the year. The seventh seed takes on unseeded Aleksandar Kovacevic and our study of  the stats and their previous meeting has led us to a prediction of more than 9.5 games in set one.

Tsitsipas has won one ATP Tour title this year but that was on clay. His only quarter-final on this surface came in Doha. 

His opening match saw him beat unseeded Jenson Brooksby 6-4 7-6.

More than 9.5 games have been played in set one in four of his last five matches. In terms of all the ten sets he's played in those five matches,  just one has had less than 9.5 games played. Three of his last four matches have seen a tie-break played, so a side bet on one here could win.

The one previous meeting between these players saw Tsitsipas win on this surface in straight sets with set one going to a tie-break.

Aleksandar Kovacevic has had two straight sets victories so far in Winston Salem. One saw more than 9.5 games played in the opening set. Of his four sets played, three have had more than 9.5 games played with two tie-breaks.

Our Aleksandar Kovacevic vs Stefanos Tsitsipas Prediction

Stefanos Tsitsipas does tend to blow a bit hot and cold. He lacks the consistency that took him into the world's top three and Grand Slam finals. Long sets are a regular feature of his matches and that was the case in his first match here.

The same can be written about Aleksandar Kovacevic who has only once made it past this stage of an ATP Tour outdoor hard court tournament this year. A side bet on a tie-break could be profitable but our main Aleksandar Kovacevic v Stefanos Tsitsipas prediction is more than 9.5 games in set one.

Prediction :

 

More than 9.5 games in set one
