Italian sports have hit a low note as their football team has made an early exit from the UEFA EURO 2024 taking place in Germany after a string of underwhelming performances. This turn of events has left Italian fans, the Tifosi, pivoting their attention much sooner than expected to tennis. In the realm of the sport, an assured moment of success is on the horizon for Italy in Wimbledon as the upcoming encounter features Jannik Sinner pitted against Matteo Berrettini—a match that guarantees an Italian advancing to the next round. It is anticipated that the champion from Halle will secure the win, but it’s suggested to consider betting on a match going beyond 3.5 sets.
The betting odds are tipping Jannik Sinner as the favorite for the title at Church Road, surpassing even the defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and the seven-time Wimbledon winner Novak Djokovic. Sinner’s ascent to the top is attributed to remarkable strides in his game, particularly his improved performance on grass courts.
Sinner continued his successful run by advancing to the semifinals of the French Open, and then went on to win his first grass-court title in Halle, Westphalia. Some staggering statistics highlight his dominance this year, with a record of 38 wins to just 3 losses.
His stellar season saw just two defeats by Carlos Alcaraz and a single loss to Stefanos Tsitsipas.In the current realm of tennis, Italy’s very own Jannik Sinner has been demonstrating a finesse that perhaps even his talented compatriot hasn’t quite matched recently. This brings into focus the odds for Sinner, who currently holds the world number one title, as he faces off against Matteo Berrettini.
Wimbledon’s opening saw Sinner triumph on Monday, overcoming a challenging phase in the third set to defeat Yannick Hanfmann with scores of 6:3, 6:4, 3:6, and 6:3. After a tense three-hour match, he claimed victory with his second match point. With this win, Jannik Sinner extends his run to six consecutive victories on grass and he’s poised to extend that streak come Wednesday.
Matteo Berrettini soared as the rising star in Italian tennis, fulfilling the high expectations of fans for quite some time, and found himself at sixth place in the ATP rankings post the Australian Open 2022. However, the past year marked the beginning of what seems to be a taxing period for the athlete from Rome, one he hasn’t appeared to fully bounce back from yet.
A persistent foot injury necessitated an early end to Berrettini’s previous season post the US Open. His appearances in 2024 have been sporadic, but his record of 14:5 wins for the year could be taken as an encouraging sign of his potential comeback.The nearly entire clay court season, which includes prestigious European Masters tournaments and the French Open, was a period of absence that the 28-year-old tennis professional found particularly tough.
He did, however, mount a significant comeback on grass, aiming for a strong showing at Wimbledon. His efforts bore fruit as he made a considerable run in Stuttgart, powering through to the final. However, it was there that the Italian player had to concede defeat to Jack Draper. Despite an early exit in the second round at Halle, the former Wimbledon runner-up has proved his capability on grass courts, suggesting that he could potentially pose a significant challenge to his countryman in future matches.
