Pick 10: Total Games Over 22.5 (1.83 Bet365)

The next chapter in what has already been a long rivalry. And the page of this tournament has read exactly the same for both of these men: each cruised in straight set victories into the quarterfinals, on the backs of first round byes, then faced a stiff test from quality competition that ended in a tight victory. Zvereveked out a win over Jannik Sinner in a third set tiebreak, and Tsitsipas had to fight back from 4-0 down in the third against Diego Schwartzman.

Ultimately, this semifinal was expected, and we can expect everything we ever expect from these two. This should be a hard-fought battle with intelligent play and lots of power, neither yielding much nor breaking down mentally. Schwartzman had some success targeting Tsitsipas’ backhand, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see that tactic from Zverev. I would also look for Tsitsipas to take advantage of his superiority at the net, knowing it is the German’s weakness.

Both their match ups in clay were very tight, and I expect this to be no different. For this reason I think that this pick is a steal and I am picking Total Games Over 22.5 🍀
