Thiago Agustin Tirante seems to have the form and momentum to push Novak Djokovic to the limit in their second-round clash at the 2026 Cincinnati Open.
Tirante is listed at +110 to cover +1.5 sets.
Current Form:
Novak Djokovic opened his North American hard-court campaign in Cincinnati, where he won three times. 7-2 on the hard court in 2026, Djokovic will try to stage a deep run in this tourney and hope to build enough momentum ahead of the 2026 US Open.
Thiago Agustin Tirante picked up where he left off, as the Argentine captured his fourth win of the North American swing after taking down Jan Choinski in three sets, 7-6, 6-7, 7-6. Tirante reached the fourth round of the 2026 Canadian Open after pulling off surprising wins over former Canadian Open champion Alexei Popyrin and top-10 player Taylor Fritz. Tirante’s run came to an end at the hands of Learner Tien, 4-6, 4-6.
The Matchup: Tirante will play Djokovic for the first time on the ATP Tour. Djokovic is heavily favored at -450, but Tirante is steadily drawing interest from big-swing bettors because of his upset potential.

Our Novak Djokovic vs Thiago Agustin Tirante Prediction
The Difference Maker: Tirante is coming into his first showdown with Djokovic with some form after going 4-1 in his last 5 matches.
Djokovic will always be a rock-solid bet to win because of his 10-1 record against players outside the top 50 this year. However, Tirante can push the 24-time Grand Slam champion to the limit if he plays his game well.
What to Expect: Tirante takes Djokovic to the limit, but collapses in the third set. Tirante’s heavy first serve and penetrating forehand will pose problems for Djokovic, who will still be acclimating to the hard-court conditions after taking some time off the circuit following his Wimbledon Open campaign.
Fearless Forecast: Djokovic wins 7-5, 3-6, 6-2
Our betting prediction for Novak Djokovic vs. Thiago Agustin Tirante: Thiago Agustin Tirante +1.5 Sets
