LiontipsAslan Karatsev vs Daniel Evans. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Sydney (January 14, 2022).
Command Analysis
Aslan Karatsev has looked very confident at the current tournament. In his opener, Karatsev closed Miomir Kecmanovic in two straight sets (7-5, 6-4). After that, the Russian tennis player defeated Lorenzo Sonego (6-2, 3-6, 6-2). Last year, Karatsev reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open, and he will be looking to defend that result, so he needs to gain momentum and get into perfect shape before the start of the major.
Daniel Evans has not lost a single set this year. At the ATP Cup, he defeated such serious opponents as Jan-Lennard Struff, Denis Shapovalov, and John Isner in two sets. In Sydney, the British tennis player got a straight-set victory over Pedro Martinez in the first round (6-2, 6-3), and after that he ousted Maxime Cressy (6-4, 7-5).
