Frances Tiafoe looks to end his losing streak against Lorenzo Sonego in the second round of the 2026 Cincinnati Open.

Tiafoe is posted at -125 to cover -2.5 games on DraftKings.

Current Form:

Frances Tiafoe looks to get his North American hard-court campaign back on track following early-round exits in Washington, DC, and Montreal. Tiafoe lost in the first round of the 2026 Washington Open to Terence Atmane 6-4, 3-6, 4-6. He defeated Marin Cilic in three sets, 5-7, 6-2, 6-2, but had to retire in his next match against Arthur Rinderknech while trailing the Frenchman 2-6, 0-6.

Lorenzo Sonego passed his first assignment in Cincinnati, beating Jerry Shang 6-3, 6-3. The win ensured a better finish for Sonego in this Masters 1000 event after losing to Tallon Griekspoor 6-7, 5-7 in the first round of the 2026 Montreal Masters.

The Matchup: Sonego is 3-1 vs. Frances Tiafoe and has won their last three meetings, though their latest encounter happened almost three years ago at the 2023 Shanghai Masters.

Our Lorenzo Sonego vs Frances Tiafoe Prediction

The Difference Maker: Despite going through a rocky stretch, Frances Tiafoe carries an impressive 12-3 record in second-round matches in 2026.

Meanwhile, Sonego has won only one in seven matches at this stage of a tournament.

What to Expect: Now that a bothersome cyst has already been removed from his hand, Frances Tiafoe hopes to play much better tennis moving forward.

Tiafoe reached the Cincinnati Open final in 2024, losing to Jannik Sinner in straight sets, 6-7, 4-6. Tiafoe should like the court conditions in Cincinnati that reward players who love to play fast.

Sonego has beaten Tiafoe in their last three matches, but the American has been a much better hard-court player in the past few years.

Fearless Forecast: Frances Tiafoe wins 6-4, 6-4

Our betting prediction for Frances Tiafoe vs. Lorenzo Sonego: Frances Tiafoe -2.5 games.
