Stefanos Tsitsipas will face Holger Rune in the second round and this will be their third career meeting. Rune had beaten Stefano Tsitsipas in both meetings last year. The most recent meeting was in Sweden back in October.

Holger Rune

Holger Rune has also suffered back-to-back defeats against Novak Djokovic. He lost 2-1 in ATP Paris France, earlier this month and he lost recently in his first ATP World Tour Finals game. He now has to square up against Stefanos Tsitsipas and he needs a win to get a shot at the next round. Against Novak Djokovic, the game ended 7-6, 6-7, 6-3 in favor of Novak Djokovic. Holger Rune recorded 18 aces, 7 double faults, 49/65 first serve points, 18/44 second serve points, and 4/8 break points saved. He scored a total of 106 points and won 16 games.

Holger Rune will feel confident coming into this game after beating Stefanos Tsitsipas twice already last year.

Analysis and Predictions

The pressure is surely on for both players coming into this game. Holger Rune put in a stellar performance against Djokovic in the first round. Rune possesses a strong backhand and an equally good forehand. He's got the tools to trouble Tsitsipas, and he already has a win over him, which came at the French Open. He should be able to grab another win over Tsitsipas here.
