Tip and bets
Federer is absolutely fantastic, but he is 39 years old. Long matches can be quite demanding, plus it takes a lot of strength to control the entire game. So we doubt that Roger will be able to win a landslide victory. His opponent will definitely take advantage of this and impose a fight on the favourite. This match will not be over quickly.
Our prediction - total over 37 games
Hurkacz just had an exhausting match against Medvedev, but Federer is much older, so we wouldn't say that any player has a great advantage. After defeating Medvedev, the Polish player will be in good spirits and definitely will fight for a win. We suggest playing a positive handicap to the underdog.
The second prediction - handicap (+5) games to Hubert Hurkacz
