In his losses, he has consistently pushed his opponents deep into sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medjedovic just beat Roman Safiullin in a three-set thriller and is -159 to cover +1.5 sets against Auger-Aliassime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FAA&#8217;s only straight-sets loss on grass this year was to ATP No. 5-ranked Taylor Fritz. I expect Medjedovic to perform, but I can&#8217;t see him pulling off a dominant win. That makes this a compelling play at plus money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two of Auger-Aliassime&#8217;s last three grass matches have gone to a third set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Tennis predictions made at 12:15 p.m. on 06\/25\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gabriel Diallo and Felix Auger-Aliassime are in action at the Mallorca Championships quarterfinal on Thursday.
