Karen Khachanov vs Learner Tien Prediction & Picks - ATP US Open

Prediction published on 9/6/26, 2:00 PM  by Bradley Gibbs | Modified on 9/6/26 at 2:14 PM in ATP US Open Picks

The US Open is starting to heat up. We're into the second week of the tournament. Now is not the time for mistakes, so Learner Tien, who has already delivered a career-best effort as far as this slam is concerned, will want to sharpen up after battling through in five sets last time out. For Karen Khachanov, only three sets were needed during the previous round, though this is a tougher task, so don't expect the Russian to make such easy work of things on Monday.  

Early odds of -189 suggest that more than three sets is quite likely, but does such a price reflect the chances of a four or more sets accurately enough? Probably not, leaving a smidgen of value on the table for those looking to find that sort of thing. Both players arrive in decent form, so much so that it really is very difficult to envisage either going down without putting up a serious fight.
