Jannik Sinner vs Frances Tiafoe H2H

Jannik Sinner vs Frances Tiafoe Prediction

Sinner is the rightful favorite as he’s flexing his muscle as the best player in the world, he owns the H2H, and he has far and away more big match experience. However, we’re getting nearly three times our money with Tiafoe. One, Tiafoe isn’t the same player he was a couple of years ago, and three of the matches were in 2021 or later. Tiafoe also plays some of his best tennis on the biggest stages or when he has the crowd behind him. That’s the case here.

Will Sinner win? Probably. But I do want to take a shot in the dark with Tiafoe at these odds. On US soil, he’s a live dog.
