Jannik Sinner vs Quentin Halys Prediction: Interesting match, but the Italian will have the edge

Advantaged by the weather conditions and his high seed in the draw, Sinner managed to play both games in a closed roof center court, so he is one of the few players with Djokovic to know his third draw and wait for the next match. Here the opponent is Halys, the French-born player who won in 4 sets in his previous match vs Vukic, surprising the crowd with a solid match, especially with his serve.

So far, it has been an easy draw and one-way games at Wimbledon for the Italian. He is searching for his best form; having played already twice in a closed stadium might not have given him the real conditions of the Wimbledon grass with an open-air environment, but he might have the chance to do it here in 2 days. The improved serve and his great game with the backhand can favor him on these fast courts, and he should be able to win this game unless some drama joins him due to the injury-prone career he had so far.

The experienced French player is taking any chance left by his opponent in this tournament so far. The first round vs the local Evans, who was expected to go till the latest stages of the tournament, was a surprise. As much as the second match vs the Australian citizen Vukic who was here supposed to get the upper hand in his match vs Halys, he lost in 3 straight sets instead. Sinner has a different pedigree, so it’s all to be seen how it will evolve the game for Halys, which has a mountain to face.

Sinner is our main favorite, but he might not be able to win in straight sets as Halys has been very consistent in his service, making it a bit more difficult for Sinner. Said so, we project the match to finish within 4 or 5 sets, most likely with over 28,5 games in the match.
