Lehecka – Sinner 2:00 p.m. ET (expected)

Jiri Lehecka played an incredible match against Tsitsipas in the last round, demonstrating dominance from the first point. His serve was brilliant, and he was a better player on the court overall. On the other hand, Sinner won yet again and continued his unbeaten streak this year. Although Jannik struggled a bit on the serve in the first set, he started playing better as the match went on, becoming the Australian Open champion. According to the bookies, Lehecka is a huge underdog in this match. Sinner will probably stay unbeaten this year after this match, as well. However, this match will be the toughest for him in this tournament. Lehecka has already shown that he can play against anyone if he has a good day.

Zverev – Alcaraz

Alexander Zverev has been playing perfectly in the tournament so far. He started off a bit slow in the last round against de Minaur, but once he got broken early in the second set, he immediately picked up his level and dominated from that point on. On the other hand, Zverev’s opponent, Alcaraz, hasn’t had any significant results since winning the Wimbledon title. Although he enjoys playing tennis, sometimes it seems like he doesn’t take the match seriously enough. However, Alcaraz has been playing perfectly in the tournament so far. He only struggled in the first set of the first match, and since then, he hasn’t lost a single set and has looked ready to win! We believe that this match will be the best of the night, and we hope that both players are ready and healthy for tonight’s match. Bookies are giving perfect odds for Zverev to win, and the head-to-head matches on hard court are 4-1 in Zverev´s favor. We think that the odds are not realistic enough, and Alcaraz could put up a tough fight. If you want to take a risk, you can bet on Zverev winning tonight.

Medvedev – Rune:

Daniil Medvedev easily defeated Dimitrov as all predicted. The Russian player showed excellent serving and returning skills and remained composed throughout the game, waiting for opportunities to strike. With Djokovic out of the tournament, Medvedev is now the second favorite to win. On the other hand, his opponent, Rune, had a difficult match against Fritz yesterday, which lasted for almost 2.5 hours. Although Rune managed to win in the end and saved a match point, he usually struggles with his fitness and conditioning after playing such tough matches. We believe that Medvedev is currently in better form than Rune and more prepared for the upcoming match.

Swiatek - Wozniacki

The upcoming quarterfinal match between Iga Swiatek and Caroline Wozniacki is expected to be a thrilling showdown. As the top seed and favorite, Swiatek will face a formidable opponent in Wozniacki, who has been playing outstanding tennis in California. Despite their different forms and rankings, this match is expected to be a close encounter, as their previous meeting in Toronto was a tight contest that Swiatek won.

Wozniacki has all the skills and experience to challenge Swiatek, but the latter’s current form and dominance on the WTA tour make her a tough opponent to beat. Swiatek is expected to bring her best game and win the match convincingly.
