Gael Monfils vs Daniil Medvedev Prediction: the Russian will be more active

Prediction for the ATP Beijing match which will take place on September 26. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Frenchman has played three tournaments after a disappointing Paris Olympics, two Masters in Montreal and Cincinnati, as well as the US Open. In New York, Gael has a 4-set win over Schwartzman and a 4-set loss to Ruud. We haven't seen Monfils on court for almost a month, so we can only guess what form the Frenchman is in.

The Russian played well at the Majors and reached the quarter-finals, where they lost to the future champion, world number one Jannik Sinner. After the Grand Slam, Daniil played two matches at the Laver Cup and did not play well, losing in three sets to two Americans, Tiafoe and Shelton. It should be noted that Medvedev has not yet guaranteed his participation in the final tournament, the Russian has 4420 points in the season, and the passing score at the moment is 5580, so Medvedev's high motivation for the current tournament is obvious.

Medvedev didn't put in much work in Berlin, after all, the Laver Cup is an exhibition tournament that doesn't give points. But in Beijing we expect the Russian to be more active, Daniil has not yet guaranteed himself a place in the final tournament and will try to correct this gap in the near future. Monfils is not young and the Frenchman's recent results show that he can't regain his former form, and here we are also unlucky with the draw, in the first round to fall to a top tennis player, to whom Gael has already lost once in two sets this season. We believe that we should not expect a prolonged match and the world number five will achieve a confident victory in two games.
