Command Analysis
Current form
Sinner was stronger than Holger Rune (6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2) in the fourth round of the Australian Open. In the match against the Dane, Yannick served 14 aces, converted four break points and lost one game on his serve. Earlier in the tournament, the Italian had beaten Marcos Giron, Tristan Schoolkate and Nicholas Jarry.
Professional qualities
Sinner is one of the best baseliners in modern tennis, who has everything to dominate the baseline. He has a strong serve and a great forehand, which allows him to control most rallies. Jannik does not necessarily resort to serve-and-volley tactics, as he confidently wins points with powerful and accurate shots from both sides. This allows him to stay on top, despite the lack of a net game in his arsenal.
Current indicators in the tour
Sinner has won 25 trophies in his career. Last year he won Rotterdam, Miami, Halle, Cincinnati and Shanghai, and also won the Australian Open, US Open and the Finals. Yannick, as a reminder, leads the world rankings.

Sinner has not lost a single match against the Australians in the last three seasons.
Current form
De Minaur reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, beating Alex Mickelsen (6-0, 7-6, 6-3). Alex served five aces, converted five break points and lost one game on his serve during the match. Earlier in the tournament, the Australian won over Francisco Cerundolo, Tristan Boyer and Botikov van de Zandschulp.
Professional qualities
De Minaur is an incredibly fast and durable player who defends well from the baseline, using his light feet to chase down almost any ball. He has been quite successful on hard courts, winning seven ATP titles, but he sometimes struggles at domestic tournaments. However, his hallmarks are his incredible consistency and ability to keep the ball in play for long periods of time, making him a dangerous opponent on all surfaces.
Current indicators in the tour

2.23Tip and bets
Sinner playing condition is not ideal, as demonstrated by the recent match against Rune. It is clear that Yannick is slightly down in physical condition and this could become a serious problem in the confrontation with De Minaur, who has never avoided protracted rallies. We believe that the Australian will be able to cling to at least a positive handicap.
Our prediction is De Minaur victory with a handicap of (+7) games at odds of 1.78
Bet on total
The last six head-to-head matches between Sinner and De Minaur have been low-scoring. However, we expect a fight in the upcoming match - Alex is in excellent shape and will be playing in front of home fans.
The second betting tip is total over 35 games for odds of 1.91

Three of De Minaur last five matches have seen the first set go to fewer than 9.5 games. We expect his upcoming match against Sinner to start with a low first set as well.
