Our Ben Shelton vs Stefanos Tsitsipas Prediction
Key Stats: Ben Shelton is winning 76.4 percent of his first serves and converting 48.3 percent of his break chances at the 2026 US Open.
Stefanos Tsitsipas is winning 77.5 percent of his first serves and converting 39.5 percent of his break opportunities in this tournament.
What to Expect: This match has all the makings of a five-set banger. Both players are serving really well and coming through in clutch situations in this tournament. It’s brutally difficult to pick an outright winner if you have two ultra-competitors playing this well, but you have to give the upper hand to Shelton, who is creating and converting break chances much better and is playing with a chip on his shoulder right now.
Still, it feels like the best move in a match that could have a really close finish is to bet on OVER 42.5 games.
Fearless Forecast: Ben Shelton wins 4-6, 7-6, 6-7, 7-6, 6-4
