Our favourite Carlos Alcaraz vs Daniil Medvedev – match predictions

It was straight-set victories that brought Alcaraz and Medvedev together in this semi-final encounter. The Spaniard defeated Alexander Zverev while the Russian made little work of countryman Andrey Rublev.

3-1 to Carlos Alcaraz @ 11/4 (3.75)

Each of the prior meetings between Alcaraz and Medvedev have been one-sided affairs, exchanging straight-set victories against each other. They arrive in red-hot form, overcoming their rivals with ease. They will be breaking a sweat in the flood-lights and the blistering heat. Alcaraz is the favourite to triumph but will have to overcome Medvedev’s strong baseline presence. This will see the Russian shave off a set but the 20-year-old should have enough in the tank to claim a 3-1 triumph.

Under 37.5 Games @ 4/5 (1.80)

Grand slam meetings between the two were on the fast courts of Wimbledon. The first meeting in 2021 finished with only 25 games played across the three sets. Their recent meeting at the same venue saw 27 games. The duo arrive on the back of a 27-game triumph for Alcaraz and a 29-game outing for Medevedev. While we expect to see a deciding separating them, it will still not force extra games to be played and this meeting should finish with Under 37.5 games.

The Serbian was made to pay at the All-England Club as the young Spaniard claimed his first Wimbledon title. Another final duel against Djokovic will be on the cards but Alcaraz has to get past the tenacious Medvedev before that.

While he succumbed in the first round of the French Open, the Russian impressed in Wimbledon with a semi-final finish. He has reached the same stage this time around and will be looking to vanquish his SW19 rival at Flushing Meadows.
