Prediction and Conclusion

Stefanos Tsitsipas is not having the best season in his career, which cost him a place in the top 10 of the rankings. He goes to Asia hoping to recover and bounce back in the top 10. The surface in Tokyo suits his game perfectly, and he should have an easy task in the opener against Alex Michelsen. The American teenager is improving his game this season and deserves all the respect for his performance. However, he is not there yet, and Tsitsipas will win this one in straight sets.
