Francis Tiafoe vs Alexei Popyrin Prediction: Popyrin will be closer to victory

Prediction for the ATP US Open match which will take place on September 2. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Before the Majors, the American played 4 hardcourt tournaments in Atlanta, Washington, Montreal and Cincinnati. In New York, Tiafoe beat Kovacevic, Shevchenko and Shelton. The match against Shelton lasted 4 hours and 6 minutes and Francis won 4:6, 7:5, 6:7, 6:4, 6:3. During the game, Tiafoe made five aces and five double faults, won 76% of points on the first serve and 60% on the second.

Popyrin has already become a revelation at the American Majors. The Australian won the Masters in Montreal not so long ago, and in New York he made one of the biggest sensations by knocking out Novak Djokovic in the third round, after the Serb knew about the withdrawal of his main rival Carlos Alcaraz. The match against Novak lasted three hours and 20 minutes and Alexei won it 6:4, 6:4, 2:6, 6:4. In addition to Djokovic, Alexeybeat Korean Kwon and Spaniard Martinez Portero in three sets in New York.

Both guys deserve to play in the quarter-finals, but we still don't side with Popyrin, there is a feeling that the Australian is at the peak of his form right now and is not going to stop at beating Djokovic. Especially since Tiafoe, you'll agree, is quite passable for the current Alexey, who recently won the Masters. As for the total, we doubt that the match will be a quick one, Tiafoe will certainly be stubborn and will do everything possible to make life difficult for Popyrin.
