Taylor Fritz faces Felix Auger-Aliassime which is all but a quarter final. Casper Ruud has qualified from this Tour Finals round-robin group and Rafael Nadal has been eliminated. Therefore, whoever wins this match will be in the last four.  Taylor Fritz was a late entry into the tournament due to the witthdrawal of Carlos Alcaraz. The eighth seed has made the most of his inclusion by beating Rafael Nadal in his first match. He then took on Casper Ruud but lost a three-setter on a third set tie-break. He's had one previous match against Auger-Aliassime beating him at the start of this year in the now-defunct ATP Cup.

Felix Auger-Aliassime had the last laugh though as Canada went on to win the ATP Cup. The Canadian has won three tournaments in recent months before losing to Holger Rune in the Paris Masters semi-final. He's now up to a career high fifth in the live world rankings. Even if winning the ATP Tour Finals, he can't finish any higher in the rankings this year. Auger-Aliassime lost his first match in this group, being beaten by Casper Ruud. He got himself back in contention though with a straight sets win over Rafael Nadal. This should be a tight match with so much at stake. Go for Auger-Aliassime to get the win, have a side bet on a tie-break.
