Italian Open quarter finals: Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Nicolas Jarry head-to-head preview

The time has come for the playoffs in the Italian Open and this will now be the clash amongst the best in the world. There are still some big players in the scene that could make a huge difference going into the tournament. These matches have the potential to be some of the most iconic matches in the clay season. There are a lot of underrated clashes that are on the cards as well.

The match we are going to speak about is the upcoming quarter-final clash between Stefanos Tstsipas and Nicolas Jarry. There is no doubt that the Greek God is one of the favourites to win the tournament and has been in great form this season and is back to being a top 10-ranked Tennis star. Nicolas Jarry might not be a top-ranking star but has the ability to cause some big surprises when needed. He has shown in this tournament that he can perform under pressure.

The underrated head-to-head battle

Though Tsitsipas will be the player who is most likely to win seeing his form and talent just get better through the season, against Nicolas Jarry the Greek has a very underrated intense clash against the Chilean. The two have played 5 games among each other and it has been a great match-up between them. The most surprising stat is that Jarry is currently leading the head-to-head battle between the two where he has won 3 out of the 5 matches. The last time these two had faced each other was in Beijing where Jarry had surprised him by beating Tsitsipas in two straight sets.

What this can insinuate is this is a matchup setup where Tstsipas has a chance to make it even and he will be a worthy adversary for Tsitsipas. It will be interesting to see who will take this match. It could be Jarry looking to assert his dominance on the Monte Carlo Champion or Tsitsipas will be the man who will show why he is one of the top players in the game right now.
