On September 1, Dominik Koepfer takes on Daniil Medvedev in the second round of the US Open. Will the Russian tennis player be able to win in straight sets? Our answer is in the prediction below.
Command Analysis
Dominik Koepfer
GermanyKoepfer nearly got eliminated right at the start of the tournament. The first-round match against Quentin Halys turned out to be very intense. The German tennis player defeated the Frenchman in five sets (6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4), but Halys shouldn't have been able to win two sets, given the huge class difference. The tournament draw doesn't look promising for Koepfer.
Daniil Medvedev
Russian FederationMedvedev is in excellent shape and in good spirits. Earlier in August, the Russian secured a victory at the Masters in Toronto and then got to the semifinals of the competition in Cincinnati. Medvedev is definitely one of the main contenders for the trophy. In the first round of the Major, Medvedev outplayed Richard Gasquet with a comfortable score (6-4, 6-3, 6-1).

Tip and bets
Koepfer almost got defeated in the first round. He isn't very confident on hard courts and has no chance in the match against Medvedev. Medvedev should get an easy win here, and we suggest playing his victory with a negative handicap.
Our prediction - handicap (-8) games to Medvedev.
Medvedev will probably win this match in three straight sets. Koepfer's chances of resisting Medvedev on hard are slim, especially after seeing him in the first round against a much weaker opponent. This looks like a good chance to bet on the total under.
Second wager - total under 29 games.
