One of the final matches of the second day at the US Open will be between Kevin Anderson and Di✱ego Schwartzman, the South African against the Argentinian. The men have played each other 3 t🍸imes, the score 2-1 so far in favor of the South African.
Kevin Anderson form
Kevin has ha🐭d a very active season in America with 3 tournaments played, and most importantly, he’s been gradually gaining form. In Atlanta and Washington the South African dropped out after his first match against Kyrgios and Brooksby. And in Cincinnati, Kevin had already managed to get through two rounds, knocking out Musetti and Johnson and settling for Khachanov. In the first round of the US Open, Anderson beat than Czech Jiri Vesely, their match lasting over four hours and it was three tiebreaks that let Anderson win!
Diego Schwartzman form
After beating veteran Karlovic, Rublev said in an interview that he was afraid to face the Croatian. And this is the Cincinnati Masters finalist, a real top-tier tennis player. With all due respect to Schwartzman, he cannot be called that. And frankly speaking, Anderson looks stronger than Karlovic at the moment. Despite this, the Argentine is the big favorite for the game. Schwartzman played in the first round against Berankis, but it is impossible to compare the Baltic and the South African, both in style and level. Also, Schwartzman played two tournaments in North America before the US, dropping out of the second round in Toronto after losing to Bautista Agut a🦩s well as the third round in Cincinnati defeated by Ruud.
Head-to-head encounters
Schwartzman is considered🍸 a master of clay court tennis, but it took him all the strength to win a five-set match against Anderson at the 2016 Roland Garros. Overall, their encounters resulted in 2-1 in favor of the South African with a very difficult win for Schwartzman on his favorite ground, and even at Major in Paris.
Expert Betting Tips
By the way, Kevin Anderson played in the US Open final in 2017, which wasn’t that long ago. It is clear that the South African has lost his form since then, but after all, Schwartzman is not at the top of his game now either. Kevin had a very difficult match in the first round against Vesely, but we know that Anderson's serve hasn’t changed: the South African made 49 aces and won 86% of his first-serve points in the game. We believe the Argentine will have a tough time against his opponent, so we suggest you bet on the South African: W1 for 2.748, ITO1 18.5 for 1.77, H1 4.5 for 1.70.
