The prominent grand slam, the US Open, commenced on Sunday, August 24. Day 3 of the tournament has brought forth a fascinating matchup between Jannik Sinner and Vit Kopriva in the round of 128. As the players prepare to compete for the title, it’s a bash for tennis fans and punters.
We at Your Opinion have conducted a thorough analysis to assist you in making wiser betting decisions on Sinner vs. Kopriva today. Read on for our US Open prediction and betting tips.
Player Form: Sinner Looking Sharp
Despite his three-month absence, world No. 1 Sinner has been making waves in the 2025 season. The young Italian began his season by reclaiming his title in the Australian Open against Alexander Zverev. He reached the finals in five out of his six tournaments this year. With a win-loss ratio of 31-4, Sinner also managed to grab his first-ever Wimbledon title this year, in a nail-biting thriller against Carlos Alcaraz, who recently has proven to be an impactful nemesis to the Italian prodigy.
Looks like Sinner’s living the double life, crushing it on both clay and hard courts, but hard courts are where he’s stacking up most of those wins this year. He’s rolling into the US Open not just as the top seed, but also as the defending champion. So far, he’s fired off 221 aces, saved 69% of break points, held serve in 91% of his games, and has converted 43% of his own break points. In short, Sinner is in no mood to let go of his US open title.
Kopriva’s season so far has been more “work in progress” than a dominating streak. He spent his first three months grinding it out on the Challenger circuit, grabbing one title, and used that as his ticket into the ATP main stage. But since then, he has yet to set his foots into the quarter-finals of any tournament and his best run came in Bastad, where Jesper De Jong showed him the exit.
He’s hammered 123 aces, held 69% of his service games, and converted 41% of break points. Decent numbers, but lining up against the current world No. 1? Let’s just say Kopriva’s gonna need more than stats to hold his ground against Sinner.
From the Bookies’ Perspective
Bookmakers at Betway are strongly inclined towards Sinner to win this encounter, making him the favourite at 1/100. Meanwhile, Kopriva is sitting at 22/1 to win. Set betting suggests a dominating 3-0 victory for the world No. 1, with this outcome paying 3/25.
Recent Head-to-Head Stats
Sinner and Kopriva have never faced each other before this encounter. The US Open round of 128 is going to be the first time they stand against each other.
Key Factors to Keep in Mind
The 2025 season would have had different statistics for Sinner, had he not received a three-month ban in order to settle a case which has been haunting him since he tested positive twice for banned substances in doping tests. However, resuming his season in May, Sinner hasn’t shown signs of faltering and has managed to keep up his winning streaks.
Kopriva seems to be struggling with his form this season, followed by his second and third round exits this season. He has a poor win-loss ratio of 8-10 and has yet to put his hands on a title.
