Khachanov vs Sonego Head-to-Head

Karen Khachanov leads Lorenzo Sonego 2-1 in their head-to-head on the ATP Tour.  Their head-to-head on the clay is tied at 1-1. Both players are solid on the surface, but Khachanov is far superior in best of five and definitely has the capabilities to come through this contest.

Khachanov vs Sonego Prediction

Khachanov has been solid since his scare in the first round and will be the clear favorite to advance to the quarterfinals, as instead of facing his higher-ranked compatriot, he will be facing Lorenzo Sonego, the man who mounted an incredibly impressive comeback against Andrey Rublev. After losing the first two sets 7-5, 6-0, it seemed very unlikely that he’d be able to take out one of the world’s best, particularly on clay. Sonego will be a dangerous opponent for Khachanov, nevertheless, the Russian’s incredible consistency in slams as well as his play overall certainly makes him my pick to advance to the last eight for a potential meeting against Novak Djokovic at the 2023 French Open.
