Prediction for the match between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Ben Shelton in Cincinnati. Stefanos Tsitsipas is the clear favorite in this match, as he is ranked 36 positions higher. Moreover, Tsitsipas has extensive experience and is one of the best tennis players in the world. Ben Shelton, although he performed well in the previous match, does not have the same level of skill. Although he will have the support of the American crowd, he is unlikely to be able to cope with Tsitsipas' game. Therefore, it is expected that Tsitsipas will win this match.
Tsitsipas performed well on the slow hard court in Los Cabos, but his success may be limited on the fast hard court in Montreal. He suffered a defeat to Shelton, who, while not being a top player, showed good skills. Shelton has a strong serve and can solve a point with just one shot. His left-handedness also adds an additional challenge for Tsitsipas. The fast, low-bouncing hard court of Mason also won't give the Greek player many opportunities for breaks. It is recommended to bet on Shelton's handicap to avoid a blowout. Prediction: F2 (+3.5)
My prediction is that Stefanos Tsitsipas will defeat Ben Shelton in the second round of the Cincinnati Masters. Despite Shelton's inconsistency, Tsitsipas is in good form after winning in Los Cabos and displaying confident gameplay. Additionally, the Greek player has a strong serve and, in my opinion, has a better chance of success. Shelton, on the other hand, has a high number of errors and a weak backhand. Furthermore, Tsitsipas always performs well in Cincinnati, and there is no reason why he wouldn't showcase his best tennis and overcome Shelton. Therefore, I expect Tsitsipas to beat Shelton in this match.
