Our pick: Alcaraz C. – Sinner J.: more than 3.5 sets

07.06.2024 14:30

Slowly but surely, the Roland Garros clay court is heading towards its finale. On Friday, the men’s singles finalists will be decided on Philippe Chatrier’s court. The first one will come from the duel between ranked neighbours Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.

The bookies trust Alcaraz a little more. The world number three defended his semi-final finish in Paris last year. The 21-year-old Spaniard has lost only one set in five matches. Last time he lost in three games to Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece. The owner of two Grand Slam trophies can play the final of Roland Garros for the first time.

A year older, Sinner was among the top four players in the French capital for the first time in his career. Also, the winner of this year’s Australian Open has not lost a single set at the tournament so far. Most recently, he defeated Bulgarian Dimitrov 3-0 and, following the withdrawal of Serbia’s Novak Djokovic, he is confident of moving up to world number one for the first time in the new edition of the ATP rankings on Monday.

What to bet on:

The history of the matchups began in 2019. On Friday, the two will meet for the 10th time, with Alcaraz slightly better off with five wins to four. Only three of their nine matches together have been decided in the minimum number of sets, and that was in events where only two winning acts were played. With the evenness of both fighters, it would be a huge surprise if either of them managed to win 3-0 in the long format on Friday.

Confidence:

8/10
