Taylor Fritz vs David Goffin Prediction: the Belgian hasn’t a real chance against Fritz

Prediction for the ATP Shanghai match which will take place on October 11. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

After the US Open, Fritz played two matches at the Laver Cup. He won over Zverev and lost to Alcaraz, and was knocked out of the tournament in Tokyo by Frenchman Fils. The American has three wins in Shanghai, over Frenchman Atman, Japan's Watanuki and Denmark's Rune. The match against Holger lasted 56 minutes and Taylor won it 6:1, 6:2. Fritz had 9 aces with zero double faults, won 86% of his points on his first serve and 46% on his second serve.

The Masters in China is the Belgian's first tournament since the US Open. Goffen has four wins in Shanghai, over Australian Duckworth, Italian Musetti, American Chiron and German Zverev. The match against Zverev lasted an hour and 57 minutes and was won 6:4, 7:5 by Goffin. David had three aces with two double faults, won 65% of points on first serve and 54% on second serve.

In this pairing we are on the side of the favorite, i.e. Taylor Fritz. The American is having a strong season, the best in his career and is in great shape. Don't forget that Fritz has not yet qualified for the World Tour Finals, so he is fully motivated. Goffen surprised with his performance in Shanghai, especially with his win over Alexander Zverev, but we doubt that the Belgian has a real chance against Fritz. Taylor has ignored the tough top-20 ranked Holger Rune in the last round, so we wouldn't be surprised if Taylor also ignores David Goffin in the quarterfinals.
