LiontipsTiafoe vs. Popyrin. US Open match prediction and bets
Command Analysis
Current form
Tiafoe's toughest match was the final round, against Ben Shelton. He beat his compatriot, but it took him five sets to win. Francis looked much better in the rest of the matches. He beat Alexander Kovacevic in four sets, but he did not finish the match with Alexander Shevchenko.
Professional qualities
Tiafoe is attacking aggressively and this has brought him success so far. The crowd's support inspires the American and allows him to demonstrate his best game. So far, everything is working out for him, but we should not forget that Francis is an extremely inconsistent player.
Current indicators in the tour
Tiafoe has won 11 of his last 14 matches and continues to crush his opponents. Francis's major successes this season include the finals in Houston and Cincinnati. As for his position in the world rankings, he is ranked 20th.
Interesting facts for betting
Tiafoe reached the semifinals here in 2022 and played in the quarterfinals last season, and it looks like the US representative is aiming to repeat that achievement.
Current form
Popyrin has been surprising more and more lately. The Australian recently became the Masters champion in Montreal, defeating Andrey Rublev in the final. At the US Open, Alexey also decided to create a few sensations. In the third round, for example, he knocked Novak Djokovic out of the competition. Before that, the Australian representative also dealt with the Korean Kwon and Pedro Martinez Portero.
Professional qualities
Popyrin has always built his game around a strong serve, but the Australian has recently started to look good in rallies. Yes, he still lacks consistency, but the progress in his actions is noticeable to the naked eye.
Current indicators in the tour
In addition to the victory in Montreal, Popyrin also reached the semi-finals of the tournament in Doha. In total, he has now won 16 out of 21 matches on open hard courts. Alexey has risen to 28th place in the ATP rankings.

Tiafoe will probably not allow his opponent to be underestimated and will perform much better than Djokovic. Especially since the American is on fire now and is showing excellent play. He has the support of the stands and successful performances at the US Open on his side. We believe that Francis will be able to break the resistance of the Australian.
