THE PREDICTION
Daniil Medvedev versus Jannik Sinner looks set to be a common, heavyweight fixture of the future and should you be in need of something to watch on Friday afternoon make sure you catch what should be an incredible match between two of the most exciting players on tour right now. As things stand, world number three Medvedev was the winner of their only previous meeting, and at this very event last season at that, where an 18-year-old Sinner took the first set before succumbing to defeat in the first round. One year on, 19-year-old Jannik Sinner is world number 34 and already holds an ATP title after winning the Sofia Open late last year. 25-year-old Medvedev has played his second Grand Slam final, won another Masters event in Paris and ended the year as the ATP Finals champion. Both players have incredible shot-making precision and explosive forehands and a deciding set could be found again here between two players who look destined for a double-figure head-to-head record. Take this to go to a deciding set and for Medvedev as the Russian is still ahead in this race right now but Sinner will likely be in or around the top 15 by the end of the year and this match will be a big marker for the Italian’s progress.
