LiontipsMarin Cilic vs Carloz Alcaraz. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP US Open (September 6, 2022).
Command Analysis
Marin Cilic reached the last 16 at all three majors this year. At the Australian Open, he lost to Auger-Aliassime in the 4th round, and at Roland Garros he managed to make a deeper run. At the current tournament, the Croatian tennis player confidently beat Maximilian Marterer and Albert Ramos-Vinolas in straight sets. His third-round opponent was World No. 23 Dan Evans, and Cilic needed four sets to overcome him.
Carlos Alcaraz wasn't particularly impressive in recent tournaments. He made a second-round exit at the Canadian Open and lost in the quarterfinals of the Cincinnati Masters. But the young Spanish star performs much better at the New York Major. He closed Sebastian Baez, Federico Coria, and Jenson Brooksby in straight sets to reach the last 16.
