Sinner with compulsory task!

For a round of 16 match at a Grand Slam tournament, the Jannik Sinner vs Daliel Elahi Galan odds are extremely lopsided. The bookmakers consider the former Italian to be the heavy favourite.

Understandable: The eighth-ranked player belongs to the extended circle of title favourites, while his Colombian opponent is in the last 16 for the first time at a Grand Slam competition. In addition, the right-hander has only four Challenger titles to his name and is ranked almost 80 places lower in the world rankings than his upcoming opponent.

For the match between Jannik Sinner and Daniel Elahi Galan, the tip is that the favourite will make short work of the match in three sets without a tiebreak or a 7:5 and thus win less than 18.5 games.

Jannik Sinner – Statistics & current form

Jannik Sinner has made headlines so far not only because of his luxurious Gucci sports bag on the court at Wimbledon, but also because of his stable performances. So far, he has not dropped more than one set in the three rounds of the grass court tournament in London.

On the other hand, the schedule has also been kind to the youngest winner of the 2019 Next Gen ATP Finals for players under 21. In the first round, Sinner faced Juan Manuel Cerundolo of Argentina, who is ranked no higher than 111 in the world rankings.

Against this background, the 3:0 victory, each with 6:2 in the rounds, was no more than a must-win for the Italian. Afterwards, the draw was again in his favour. His next opponent Diego Schwartzmann, who also comes from Argentina, was no more than a walkover for the Gucci aficionado as he was number 98 in the world rankings.

Once again, he only needed three rounds and around two hours on court to knock Schwartzmann out of the competition. In the last game, it was again against Frenchman Quentin Halys. Once again, an easy opponent who was competing on grass for the first time this year at Wimbledon.

However, the South Tyrolean had to accept at least the first set loss in the Wimbledon tournament against him. The three easy matches have also ensured that the seven-time ATP Tour title-holder can play physically fresh, as the past rounds have hardly cost him any energy.

No more than eleven match wins by the Colombian?

In view of this and his fundamentally higher quality, betting odds on a maximum of eleven games won by the underdog in the match between Jannik Sinner and Daniel Elahi Galan are also worth considering.

The player from Colombia is surprisingly in the last 16 at Wimbledon. As with Sinner, the match schedule has been simple so far. In the first round, the Japanese Yoshihito Nishioka was a seeded player, but he had not played a single match on grass this season and was only seeded 24th.

The opponent in the second round, Oscar Otte of Germany, who is ranked no higher than 233rd in the world rankings, did not turn out to be too difficult either. Only the last opponent in the person of Sweden’s Mikael Ymer can be described as a strong player on grass.

Underdog has five sets in legs

However, the Scandinavian is having a poor grass court season and was knocked out in the first round of two of three tournaments on this surface before Wimbledon. On top of that, Elahi Galan’s victory was only very close, as the decision in his favour only came after five sets.

Thanks to the three Wimbledon wins in 2023, the right-hander from South America now has five victories and only one defeat on grass. A very pleasing result for him, of course, especially in view of the fact that he has not yet been able to celebrate any major successes on this surface. His four Challenger Tour triumphs to date have all come on clay instead.

Furthermore, the current year did not go well for him at the Grand Slam tournament level before: at both the Australian Open and the French Open, the professional from Bucaramanga failed in the 1st round.

But now that he will meet one of the top players for the first time at Wimbledon, the end of this Grand Slam competition is also in sight. His opponent would be qualitatively superior to him on any surface, but on grass the class difference is even more in favour of the Italian.

In the light of this assessment, the clash between Jannik Sinner and Daniel Elahi Galan offers additional forecasts and odds of less than 30.5 games in the duel, which will certainly not last too long.

The only match between Sinner and Elahi Galan to date took place in November 2021. Back then, they faced each other in the Davis Cup for their home countries and the Italian recorded an unchallenged 2-0 victory. In the second set, he even finished off his opponent with a maximum of 6:0.

Jannik Sinner – Daniel Elahi Galán Tip

Daniel Elahi Galán made his ATP Tour debut in 2015 at the Claro Open Colombia thanks to a wildcard and has yet to win a tournament at this level since. His opponent, on the other hand, already has seven such titles to his name despite being only 21 years old. This comparison alone clearly shows which player is the favourite in the match.

For the duel between Jannik Sinner and Daniel Elahi Galan, betting on the Italian to win less than 18.5 games seems advisable. A clear 3:0 win for Sinner is to be expected and he will probably not have to play a tiebreak or win a set only 7:5 in these rounds.

Sinner has yet to triumph on grass, but in last year’s quarter-finals even the “Djoker”, who is aiming for his eighth Wimbledon title this year, was on the brink of defeat. Only after five sets did the Serb finally beat him.

With this performance at the latest, it was clear that the youngster feels equally at home on the “holy grass” of Wimbledon. Another factor in favour of the prediction is that Sinner is playing fresher. He only lost one set in the course of the tournament, while his upcoming opponent lost a lot of energy, especially in the last match over five sets.
