At the ATP 500 in Beijing it’s time for the semi-finals. The Spaniard and the Italian face off at the top of the draw for a place in the final against the winner of Zverev-Medvedev.
Alcaraz and Sinner once again against each other, and it certainly won’t be the last time. Friends in life and a rivalry that is destined to become a classic on tennis courts around the world in the coming years: despite their young age the two have already faced each other seven times: on four occasions the Spaniard prevailed, on three ‘Italian, including the last precedent in the semi-final in Miami.
THE PREDICTION: ALCARAZ WINS 2-0
—
The Spaniard reaches the semifinals having not conceded any sets to Hanfmann, Musetti and Ruud, accelerating when necessary and never risking anything. Jannik’s path was more tortuous, as he managed to close the match in two sets only against Nishioka and conceded one to Evans in the first round and to Dimitrov in the quarterfinals. Although the last match on hard courts saw Sinner come out on top, the feeling is that this time things could go differently and that the Spaniard could legitimize his current form by winning 2-0. The market in question can be played at 1.78 on Betway, 1.80 on William Hill, 1.81 on Better and Goldbet and 1.91 on bet365.
