LiontipsMiomir Kecmanovic vs Gael Monfils. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022 Australian Open (January 23, 2022).
Command Analysis
Last season, Miomir Kecmanovic recorded only 17 victories against 27 defeats. After such a disappointing year, little was expected from Kecmanovic at the current Australian Open. But the Serbian tennis player made it to the last 16, which is his best result so far. Kecmanovic cruised to victory in the first two matches, defeating Salvatore Caruso (6:4, 6:2, 6:1) and Tommy Paul (7:6, 7:5, 7:6) in straight sets. Lorenzo Sonego was a bit more tough to beat, but the Serbian player prevailed in four sets (6:4, 6:7, 6:2, 7:5).
Gael Monfils has been excellent at the beggining of the year. He won a tournament in Melbourne in early January, defeating Karen Khachanov in the final match. At the Australian Open, Monfils is yet to lose a set. The most difficult for the French player was the match against Christian Garin (7:6, 6:1, 6:3), and Federico Coria and Alexander Bublik didn't even put up a fight.
