For the first time in ten years, Valentin Vacherot takes on Stefanos Tsitsipas. The pair meet in round two of the Japan Open where Vacherot is the eighth seed and Tsitsipas a qualifier. Looking at the statistics, a long match looks on its way and our prediction is more than 22.5 games.
In the last eight, the victor will be up against either second seed Frances Tiafoe or qualifier Arthur Fils.
Valentin Vacherot won his first round match against Alexander Blockx in straight sets. Both were decided by a tie-break. Vacherot has played at least one tie-break in five of his last six matches. A side bet on one in this match looks a good one to make.
He has played more than 22.5 games in three of his last four matches played over this format.
The one previous match between these two players was won by Tsitsipas on clay in the French Juniors ten years ago.
Stefanos Tsitsipas had to win two qualifying matches to gain entry into the main draw. He then beat Tomas Martin Etcheverry in round one, but he had to come from behind to get the victory. More than 22.5 games have been played in all but two of his last five best-of-three sets matches.
