Jannik Sinner vs Adrian Mannarino preview

Top seed Jannik Sinner of Italy will take on Adrian Mannarino of France in the second round of the Cincinnati Open on Wednesday, August 13.

Sinner is arguably the best player in the world. The four-time Grand Slam champion won the Wimbledon Championships last month and was the runner-up at French Open. He has looked good in Cincinnati as well, winning both of his matches in straight sets so far. He thrashed Daniel Galan in his first match and then beat Gabriel Diallo in his second.

Mannarino, on the other hand, is one of the veteran players on the Tour at 37. He beat Jordan Thompson in straight sets in the first round in Cincinnati and then Thomas Machac in the second. The Frenchman then upset 13th-seed Tommy Paul in three sets in the third round.

Jannik Sinner vs Adrian Mannarino prediction

Sinner is peerless in terms of hitting his groundstrokes flat out on hard courts. He is almost equally strong on the two wings, thereby making it very difficult for his opponents to contend with him.

Mannarino relies a lot on his touch and goes into the net frequently to finish points with volleys. However, with the kind of passing shots Sinner has, it will be very difficult for him to succeed using that tactic.

Moreover, Sinner has a very powerful serve as well and will not be easy to break. On the other hand, the Italian will fancy his chances of breaking the Frenchman frequently enough.

Sinner is also 14 years younger than Mannarino and should be relatively fresh as well. Thus, the Italian is ahead on almost all the parameters. Mannarino has a very slim chance of winning this match and will have to play really well to make a match of it. Sinner is likely to win the match easily.

Pick: Sinner to win in straight sets.
