Aslan Karatsev vs Frances Tiafoe Prediction: the Chances are Equal

Prediction for the ATP Roland Garros match, which will take place on May 31. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

In the first RG round, Karatsev defeated Alexei Popyrin in 4 sets with the score 6-3, 6-7, 6-1, 6-2. Aslan is in great shape, which was evident in his previous tournaments. In the match against the Australian, he made seven aces and on four double faults, winning 78% of his first serve points and 61% of his second. Reception percentage: 30%/62%, winners/unforced errors 41/33. For Karatsev, the upcoming meeting will be his fifth at RG-2023. Before beating Popyrin, Aslan won three qualifying matches without giving a single set.

Despite being ranked No. 12 in the ATP, the American was not the best on the clay. Frances won the clay tournament in Houston, defeating Etcheverry in the final, but that event was not a solid draw of players. However, he suffered setbacks in Europe in Barcelona, Madrid, and Rome. Tiafoe's first opponent in Paris was Krajinovic, No. 93. The match was brief, two hours and 10 minutes, and Francуs won it 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. Tiafoe made 15 aces and two double faults and won 82% of points on the first serve and 49% on the second. Reception statistics: 43%/47%, winners/unforced errors 47/25.

Tiafoe is ranked much higher than Karatsev at ATP. However, it doesn't make much difference. We can't say Tiafoe is clueless on the clay, but he is not a clay courter. Karatsev feels very comfortable on the surface; he proved it in Madrid and the past seasons. Karatsev is in the form after a long decline. Recall that Aslan was in the ATP top 30 not so long ago, so he is fearless of players like Tiafoe. Karatsev has a perfect chance of making it to the third round. As for the total, the upcoming match will end in four sets.
