Tiafoe vs Altmaier Prediction

Frances Tiafoe leads Daniel Altmaier 1-0 in their head-to-head, winning that clash at the 2023 Australian Open in four sets. Tiafoe has put in a couple of flat performances since winning Houston and he’ll need to be wary of an in-form Daniel Altmaier who has won a ton of matches on clay coming into this match. The German overcame a hostile home atmosphere in the first round to beat Italy’s Giulio Zeppieri in three sets. Tiafoe hasn’t won a main draw match at the Rome Masters in his lifetime, and his form has been shambolic, to say the least, with his match against Pedro Cachin in Madrid a case in point. He’ll likely break his duck at the Italian Open, owing to his superior court coverage and wonderful shot placement, but we’ve hardly seen any of those attributes on display of late. Can he showcase it on Saturday? We’ll go against the grain and take the momentum player in this match – Altmaeier.
