Wimbledon: Matteo Berrettini vs. Felix Auger-Aliassime 7/7/21 Tennis Prediction

Matteo Berrettini (7) meets Felix Auger-Aliassime (16) in the quarter finals of the Wimbledon on Thursday, July 7th, 2021.

Will Felix Auger-Aliassime back up the biggest win of his career by getting another huge win to make his Grand Slam breakthrough and reach the semis, or will Matteo Berrettini continue to dominate here in Wimbledon in the hopes of making it one step closer to the title.

Matteo Berrettini dominated his fourth round match against Ilya Ivashka, winning the match in easy fashion in 3 sets 6-4/6-3/6-1. Matteo is really on top of his game here on grass, especially in the UK as he has won the Queens Open and is now in the quarter finals of Wimbledon. Matteo Berrettini will want to keep this going and he will know that if he is able to get himself in the semis he will have a strong chance to go to the final and give himself a good shot at his first ever grand slam title to make an even bigger name for himself in the mens division.

Felix Auger-Aliassime had to fight right until the end in his fourth round match, having to fend off the looming comeback of Alexander Zverev, beating him in 5 sets 6-4/7-6/3-6/3-6/6-4. Felix said after the match that this was the biggest win of his career as he beat a rival he had never beaten before, and he has made it to his first ever grand slam quarter final. Felix knows that he now meets yet another hard opponent to beat, but he will be very confident following that win against Alexander, but he will also have to ensure he improves if he does go up a set or two.

This is going to be the 2^nd meeting between both players, with Matteo Berrettini having won their only prior encounter. They have only met on grass and Matteo came through in 2 sets when they met. Both of them have improved drastically since their last encounter, and although Felix is a generational talent, Matteo is the much better player recently. Felix has had ups and downs in his form this tournament, but has found a way through due to injuries to his opponents, whilst Matteo has maintained an extremely high level continuously, this shows he is ready to win this.
