Alex De Minaur vs Otto Virtanen Prediction: the Australian has had plenty of time to recover

Prediction for the ATP US Open match which will take place on August 29. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

We haven't seen Alex on the courts since 8 July and the Australian's match at Wimbledon against Fils. De Minaur did not appear in the quarter-final against Djokovic, he was injured. At the US Open, De Minaur beat American Chiron, the 46th ranked player in the world, in 4 sets. The match against the American lasted three hours and 31 minutes, Alex won it 6:3, 6:4, 5:7, 6:4. During the game De Minaur made 9 aces and 12 double faults, won 37% of points on the first serve and 51% on the second.

Otto qualified in New York, from which he knocked out Britain's Brrodi and Jubb and Frenchman Pouille. In the main draw, Virtanen was stronger than Frenchman Gali, the 119th ranked player in the world. The match against Gali lasted two hours and 45 minutes and Otto won 6:3, 6:3, 6:7, 6:2. During the game Virtanen made 10 aces with 4 double faults, won 86% of points on the first serve and 66% on the second.

We doubt that Virtanen will be able to compete with De Minaur. The Australian has had plenty of time to recover from his injury, Alex beat Chiron quite confidently in the first round and we believe that De Minaur will only improve from match to match. For Virtanen, the second round of the Majors is a huge achievement. In this pairing we are on the side of the favourite and we believe that Alex will win today.
