Aslan Karatsev vs Cristian Garin Prediction: Aslan Is Getting Back Into Shape

Prediction for the ATP Washington match between Aslan Karatsev vs Cristian Garin, which will take place on July 29th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the athletes' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Aslan has had some tough losses recently, with only one win over Harris on July 23rd in his last seven matches. He also failed the first rounds of Geneva, Roland Garros, Halle, and Wimbledon. The most recent tournament was in Atlanta, where Karatsev beat Harris but lost in three sets to Tiafoe in the second round.

At Wimbledon, Garin made it through to the main draw but lost in three sets in the first round to China's Shang. After the Majors in the London suburbs, Cristian participated in two more tournaments, winning over Dodig and Kukushkin in Braunschweig and failing in three sets to Carballes Baena. In Bastad, the Chilean didn't measure up to Russian Kotov, losing in three games as well.

The Washington tournament is played on a hard court, and Garin hasn't played on that surface in a while. Karatsev, on the other hand, had two matches on a hard court last week, easily defeating Harris. He also gave Tiafoe a run for his money. Obviously, the Russian has the advantage when it comes to practice. The Atlanta tournament showed that he gradually regained shape, so Garin wouldn't have an easy time. We think the Chilean will lose in the end and we doubt the match will be quick.
