LiontipsJohn Isner vs Reiily Opelka. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Dallas (February 12, 2022).
Command Analysis
John Isner has enjoyed the home tournament in Dallas so far. He was not so confident on hard courts in Australia, where he made first-round exits in Adelaide and Melbourne. In Dallas, Isner started with a hard-earned victory over Kevin Anderson (7-6, 6-7, 7-6), and after that he cruised to victory over Vasek Pospisil in the quarter-final match (6-4, 6-4).
Reilly Opelka looked much better in Australia. For example, he reached the semi-finals in Sydney and the third round at the Australian Open. At the current Dallas Open, Opelka recorded two straight-sets victories. First, he prevailed over Cedrik-Marcel Stebe on two tie-breaks, and then ousted the Frenchman Adrian Mannarino (6-3, 6-4).
