YOSHIHITO NISHIOKA VS ARTHUR RINDERKNECH PREDICTION
Yoshihito Nishioka has enjoyed a fine week in Atlanta and that was encapsulated with his impressive win over Frances Tiafoe on Friday in the quarter-finals. He won an impressive 85% on his first serve and that combined with his impressive return game was his keys to victory.
There is every chance it will be the same here if he is to overcome Arthur Rinderknech. The big-serving Frenchman overpowered Mattia Bellucci in the quarters and he will look to do that again here. He managed 21 aces in that match and it will be interesting to see how he measures up against Nishioka.
The 28-year-old Japanese star is playing some good tennis this week and he should have enough quality to dominate on his serve and create enough openings to break Rinderknech. Nishioka is our clear preference to win this one and move into the final.
