Hubert Hurkacz v Matteo Berrettini Head to Head

Hurkacz Gets Past Bublik & Wawrinka
Hurkacz has been instrumental in getting his side through to the next stage of the competition having won both his singles matches, much like both his women’s singles partners in the tournament.
In the opening match where Poland took on Kazakhstan, Hurkacz was a 7-6 (8), 4-6, 6-3 winner over Alexander Bublik. It was a match which could have gone either way, especially given Bublik had his chances in the first set.
The Pole number one, in fact, missed out on four set-points in that opening set before converting his fifth and then dropped the second set. Fortunately for him, he was able to collect his wits and register a victory.
It was somewhat easier for Hurkacz in his second singles match where he defeated Stan Wawrinka 7-6 (5), 6-4 in an hour and 41 minutes. He was broken back after taking a 3-1 lead in the opening set but from there on didn’t lose his serve and got past the Swiss player’s serve once in the second.
Hurkacz will need to do a lot better against Berrettini though given his opponent has been clinical in his performances so far.

Berrettini Overcomes Monteiro, Surprises Ruud
With two titles in both, 2021 and 2022 respectively under his belt, Berrettini had entered this year’s United Cup with some confidence. And he has started off like that too with straight-set wins in both his singles matches.
Berrettini was always expected to get past Thiago Monteiro with ease and he did that 6-4, 7-6 (7) but it was in the second match that the Italian was expected to be tested.
It was against the US Open runner-up and world number three, Casper Ruud. Instead, things got a lot easier for Berrettini, who helped himself to a break of serve in each of the two sets to win 6-4, 6-4. He was on court for less than an hour and a half.
Can he now bring his A-game to the fore and come out a winner in this knockout stage of the competition?
Hurkacz v Berrettini Prediction and Tip
While these two will be closely matched, we sense Berrettini looks a lot more confident coming into this. Hurkacz holds a slight advantage on hard court surfaces which makes us believe it could be a keen battle that goes into a third.
