US Open Predictions & Betting Tips: Grigor Dimitrov vs Frances Tiafoe

America’s Frances Tiafoe faces off against the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov in the quarter-finals of the 2024 US Open on Tuesday, 3rd September. 

After emphatic wins for both players in their previous matches, this is set to be a fantastic game of tennis and potentially the one of the tournament so far. 

Ahead of the match, our betting experts have been checking the latest odds to put together some top tips and predictions for readers ready for the tie.

Grigor Dimitrov

An enthralling six-setter last time out against the Russian Andrey Rublev, the 33-year-old Dimitrov showed age is just a number as he went on to win 6-3, 7-6, 1-6, 3-6, 3-6. He won an incredible 80% of his first serve points, hitting 17 aces; however, with lots of unforced errors and double faults, Dimitrov will need to focus on the accuracy of his serve should he want to cause a tournament upset and beat the American. 

Frances Tiafoe 

Up against the man who sent last year’s US Open champion packing, Alexei Popyrin struggled to put up the same fight against last year’s quarter-finalist, Tiafoe. Not phased by who he knocked out previously, Tiafoe was up for the fight. With the overwhelming support of his home crowd, the 26-year-old won the tie 6-4, 7-6 (7-3), 2-6, 6-3, booking his place in this year’s quarter-finals. After coming so close last year and edging past the player who ended his 2023 US Open already, Tiafoe will do everything he can to get to the semi-finals and see off the experienced Bulgarian.
