Tennis Today Tips – 28.07.2022
Lorenzo Musetti has been the talk of the town since last weekend. He finally brought his skills to the court! Will he be able to control his nerves in Umag? There he will meet compatriot Marco Cecchinato in the 1st round.
For Facundo Bagnis, on the other hand, things went rather less smoothly. He, too, is competing in Croatia and does not want to show any weakness against Corentin Moutet at the start. Unfortunately, his opponent is the favourite with the bookmakers.
What will happen to Carlos Alcaraz at this tournament? The 19-year-old has not been as cool as usual lately. Norbert Gombos, his first opponent in Umag, wants to take advantage of that. The role of the clear underdog should not bother him.
If anyone has a chance of winning the tournament in Atlanta, it is John Isner. No one has won the tournament more often. To get back on the winners’ list, the veteran first needs an opening win against Ben Shelton.
Jenson Brooksby also wants to go far in his home tournament. For that to happen, he will have to prevail against his compatriot Mackenzie McDonald. Both are considered super talents, but who will be the better one on Thursday?
Tennis tips today broadcast: Where are the matches on 28.07.?
The Atlanta Open can only be watched live if you use the Bet365 stream. Unfortunately, nothing will be broadcast on TV. How does it look with Umag? Unfortunately similar, there is no team here either. The streaming service Tennis Channel at least offers a small package.
Tennis tips today 28.07.: Lorenzo Musetti – Marco Cecchinato (16:00)
For years Lorenzo Musetti has been considered a mega talent, although he is only 20 years old. Now the time had finally come: He kept his nerve and snatched his first title in Hamburg! He beat none other than Carlos Alcaraz.
Dusan Lajovic, Fadunco Bagnis and Alejandro Davidovich-Fokina also had no chance. In Croatia he started well, but not without mistakes. 6-2, 3-6, 6-1 against Aljaz Bedene, he allowed three of four break chances.
But that should not unsettle him, because he also started with a 2-1 win in Hamburg. He has only played Marco Cecchinato once before. In 2021 at Roland Garros, he managed a 3-6, 6-4, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, a real thriller.
1.30 to 3.30, but this time the bookmakers are clearly in Musetti’s favour. Cecchinato survived the qualifying round in Umag, but also benefited from Andreas Seppi’s withdrawal. In the main draw, he then brought a 6-1, 5-7, 6-2 against Mili Poljicak to the court.
Our expert tip: 2:0-Musetti
Tennis tips tomorrow 28.07: Facundo Bagnis – Corentin Moutet (17:20)
Facundo Bagnis and Corentin Moutet are separated by just four places in the world rankings, so whether they will go toe-to-toe in a match on Thursday? 1.60 to 2.30, the odds are in favour of the Frenchman.
He has shown his strongest side so far. After two straight wins in the qualifiers, he gave Daniel Altmaier no chance in the first round at 6-4, 6-2, although he only used six of his 13 break chances.
In the first direct duel with Facundo Bagnis, his rhythm should help him. The Argentine did not have to qualify, winning 7-5, 6-3 against compatriot Tomas Martin Etcheverry in round 1.
He won 81% of his first serve points and only allowed one break, he was not to be beaten on service. Three years ago he reached the quarter-finals here in Umag, and he should do the same in 2022.
Our Expert Tip: Over 21.5 Games
Tennis tips today 28.07.: Carlos Alcaraz – Norbert Gombos (20:00)
The defending champion is seeded No. 1, but can Carlos Alcaraz handle being the favourite? A year ago, he snatched the trophy with a straightforward victory over Richard Gasquet.
A few days ago in Hamburg, however, he missed the triumph, despite clear wins against Filip Krajinovic, Karen Khachanov and Alex Molcan, Lorenzo Musetti was too strong in the end. Since the Masters in Madrid almost three months ago, he has been waiting for another title.
Nobody expects him to have serious problems against Norbert Gombos, with odds of 1.05 to 9.50 he is clearly ahead. The Slovakian has more or less struggled his way into the last 16.
After wins against Fernando Romboli and Franco Agamenone, he beat the in-form Federico Delbonis 6-4, 5-7, 6-4 in the 1st round. He will now meet the twelve years younger Alcaraz for the first time.
Our expert tip: 6-2 in set 1
Tennis tips today 28.07.: Ben Shelton – John Isner (02:20 h)
19 years meet 37 years – Ben Shelton faces his experienced compatriot John Isner in Atlanta. The veteran is the record champion there, has already won six titles and is also the defending champion.
In 2021, he won against Brandon Nakashima, Taylor Fritz and Jack Sock, among others. After losing the semi-final in Newport, the King of Aces is desperate to get back to the final this time.
The bookmakers are naturally on his side for the opener, sending a 1.30 to 3.20 into the race. Young Ben Shelter was allowed to start on a wildcard, set up a 6-2, 7-5 win over Ramkumar Ramanathan in Round 1.
He attracted attention with a final and a semi-final at the last two Challengers, but his opponents there were much weaker than John Isner will be now.
Our expert tip: 2:0 Isner
Tennis tips today 28.07.: Jenson Brooksby – Mackenzie McDonald (21:20 Uhr)
The number 43 in the world meets the number 51 in an American duel – Jenson Brooksby challenges Mackenzie McDonald! The oddsmakers have Brooksby ahead at 1.50 to 2.50 on his debut in Atlanta.
He got off to a strong start with a 6-3, 6-1 win over Benoit Paire. After his 3rd round exit at Wimbledon against Cristian Garin, he took a little break and is now back in top form.
Mackenzie McDonald also started with a smooth success, threw Denis Kudla out with a 6-2, 7-6. And that despite winning only 60% of his first serve points.
He is playing Brooksby for the very first time, losing the duel by 15 centimetres in terms of height. McDonald hasn’t won two matches in a row since the French Open, which doesn’t necessarily speak in his favour.
Our Expert Tip: Win Brooksby
