Tennis Predictions
A great duel awaits us for this quarter-final of the Brisbane tournament in Australia, since the local Jordan Thompson will face the number 2 seed Grigor Dimitrov in front of his home crowd. Jordan Thompson is the number 8 seed in this tournament. He only lost one set in total during his first round against the Italian Matteo Berrettini since he had to come back to win his duel. He then beat Alex Michelsen in 2 sets during the round of 16. But this quarter-final promises to be formidable since the two opponents already faced each other in this tournament last year during the semi-finals.
Indeed, Grigor Dimitrov is back on conquered ground since he is the defending champion of this Brisbane tournament, won last year against Holger Rune. Also seeded number 2 last year, the Bulgarian should want to give everything in this match to defend his title in the next round. Winner of his first two rounds in just two sets against Yannick Hanfmann and Aleksandar Vukic, he seems to have lost none of his form. Quarter-finalist in his last match of last season, he lost to top 20 Karen Khachanov at the Paris-Bercy Masters and should therefore want to do better this time.
