ATP Cincinnati Prediction: Who will win the Masters 1000 in 2024?
Three-time winner of the tournament (2018, 2020 and 2023), Novak Djokovic is not defending his title in Cincinnati this year. The recent Olympic champion is taking the opportunity to rest a little, giving his rivals (Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Daniil Medvedev ...) a chance.
At the last edition, several big names (Medvedev, Sinner, Tsitsipas ...) were quickly out of the running for a special edition. This year, those involved will undoubtedly want to do much better, which augurs well for the future. Alexander Zverev and Daniil Medvedev are two players to keep an eye on, having both lifted the title in Cincinnati in the past.
As for our ATP Cincinnati 2024 prediction, it's based on a final victory for Alcaraz, who reached the final last year. Without Djokovic, the Spaniard has a great chance of wrapping up the tournament in style this time, and his current form is clearly in his favor. Our ATP Cincinnati prediction: Carlos Alcaraz wins the tournament!

Our advice for betting on the Cincinnati Open
To best succeed in your tennis predictions on the Cincinnati Open matches, you will have to take into account certain criteria and analyze them. Here, according to our tennis specialists, are those that must be studied before betting. By following these tips to the letter, you can hope to increase your bankroll on this Cincinnati Masters 2024.
Take into account the form of the players
First, you will need to look at the form of the two players who are facing each other. This axis of analysis is essential so that you can identify which player is performing well at the moment and which player is struggling. Always think about this before placing your bet. To be able to properly analyze the form of each player, you can look at their recent results but you can also go further and look at their performances in detail. Thus, many statistics on the last matches can be observed.
The most important ones are the number of sets, games, winning shots, unforced errors, efficiency during service games or during service returns. You can also watch matches to help you identify the players' form but also their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, the time spent on the courts by the players and the rest time they had between matches is also a key factor in the analysis of your match.
Consider the playing surface
In addition to looking at the players' form, it will be important to have an overall view of their performances on each surface and to look at their latest results on the surface that interests you. The Cincinnati Masters 1000 is played on hard, so it is the players' performances on this surface that will have to be looked at in particular. Each player has a favorite surface, where he often performs best.
A player like Sinner, for example, plays very few matches on grass each year and focuses on hard tournaments. It is not for nothing that he performs regularly on the surface. The surface plays an extremely important role in the efficiency of a player. This criterion is therefore not to be underestimated and you must therefore favor players who perform well on hard for this Western & Southern Open. Word from the specialists.
Watch the history of duels (head-to-head)
Another tip that our experts can provide you is to take into account the history of the last head-to-head meetings between the two players. Before betting on a match in the Cincinnati tournament, look at who has won the last head-to-head meetings, if possible during the current season or during the last two years.
In addition, in connection with what was explained above, take into account the surface on which these duels were played and therefore look especially at the results of the confrontations on hard for this Masters. Whether in terms of level or psychology, these face-offs will give you good information on the player who will be in a strong position before the start of the match.
Take a look at the tournament's history
Our fourth tip to consider to succeed in your prediction on the Cincinnati Masters 1000 is to consider the tournament's last editions. As for the surface, some players often perform well in a particular tournament. This is explained by several reasons such as the support of the public, the climatic conditions of the tournament, the timing of the calendar, etc. For example, Federer has won the Cincinnati tournament 7 times in 11 years.
Earlier, we could see several Americans shine in this Masters 1000 like Sampras, Agassi or Roddick. We can often find the same players going far in the competition. In order to refine your analysis on a match, look at the performance history of each player at the Western & Southern Open.
Check the ATP ranking
The last important factor to consider is to check the ATP ranking of the players present in this Cincinnati Masters 1000. For example, a player who has never taken a place in the world top 100 and who reaches the quarter-finals of the tournament against a player who has been in the top 30 for 4 years, then this player will not be preferred for your bet. The lack of experience will surely make a difference in the match. The ATP ranking can also help you know the motivation of the players in the tournament.
If a player has the opportunity to become the world number 1 in his country or to beat his best ATP ranking, then this player will be super motivated to win the match. The same goes for a player who is defending his title from last year or even a good advance in the tournament. There are indeed many points at stake and some players have points to defend, you have to be careful on that side.
