Match Analysis

Stefanos Tsitsipas currently holds the 28th rank and has a solid form index of 21.81, indicating a reasonable level of performance heading into the match. His Elo rating of 1869 suggests considerable experience and skill. Tsitsipas exhibits a strong surface strength index of 15.59, which is significantly higher than Muller's 7.85, giving him an advantage on hard courts.

In their recent performances, Tsitsipas has struggled, losing his last two matches in the Winston-Salem and Cincinnati tournaments. His recent form is marked by a win against Fabian Marozsan but has been inconsistent overall. Conversely, Muller, ranked 38th, has had a mixed bag of results, including a recent loss to Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard and a win against Darwin Blanch. While both players have shown vulnerabilities, Tsitsipas has faced tougher opponents, which may have influenced his recent results.
