Melbourne.
The current Australian Open men's singles draw rich in sensations. However, in the match between American Cressy and Russian Medvedev, we do not expect a miracle; on the contrary, we believe that the second racket of the world will easily break into the top eight tennis players of the tournament.
Maxime Cressy
The fourth round of the Australian Open was a tough performance for #70 in the world. Cressy was able to get through three rounds, and he has a lot to thank for that. Cressy faced a veteran and no longer top-ranked Isner in the first round, now No. 25 in the ATP rankings. Then Maxime was more robust against #132 Machac and #175 O'Connell. Surprising set for majors. The fight against Medvedev will be a real test of the American's strength, and here we will see what Maxime is capable of now.
Daniil Medvedev
After a brutal fight with Kyrgios, primarily psychologically, Medvedev was rewarded with a match against van de Zandschulp, #57 in the world. The game lasted less than two hours and ended with a confident 6:4, 6:4, 6:2 victory for the Russian. The only negative thing worth mentioning about Medvedev's performance was his high number of double faults and overall second-serve game. However, the Russian was doing well on his first serve, and as evidenced by 82% of the points, he won fifteen all.
Expert Betting Tips
We don't doubt that Medvedev will end up in the quarterfinals. Daniil won't lose even a set. We'll bet on the minus handicap for Medvedev. Daniil is an experienced player, winner of the US Open, and he understands very well that he will not meet such easy opponents as Cressy at this tournament. The Russian will get a confident victory and save his resources for the next fights.
