ATP United Cup Best Bets Including Fritz vs Tsitsipas

ATP United Cup

Hurkacz – Griekspoor: 07.01.2026 00:30 CEST
H2H: 3-2

Hubert Hurkacz has lost three of his last five matches. This week in Australia, Hurkacz upset Zverev in the opening match in straight sets. He served well, hitting 21 aces and offering only one breakpoint. Last season at the United Cup, Hurkacz won both singles matches.

Tallon Griekspoor has lost three of his last five matches. This week in the United Cup, the Dutchman lost to Zverev in straight sets. He struggled under pressure, failing to save any breakpoints he offered.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Hurkacz is the slight favourite in this matchup, and we agree. He played extremely well against Zverev. If he serves well, we believe he will have an edge in this matchup. Last season at the Australian Open, under similar conditions, the Pole defeated Griekspoor in straight sets. We expect a similar outcome tomorrow.

That being said, Hurkacz covering the games handicap is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Hubert Hurkacz -2.5 games handicap @-112 @FanDuel

Fritz – Tsitsipas: 07.01.2026 04:30 CEST
H2H: 4-3

Taylor Fritz has lost four of his last five matches. This week in Australia, Fritz surprisingly lost to Baez in three tight sets in the opening match of the United Cup. In the second match, Fritz outlasted Munar in three tight sets after playing for over three hours. He even saved one match point in the second set tiebreak. Last season in the United Cup, Fritz helped the USA win the title.

Stefanos Tsitsipas has lost three of his last five matches. This week at the United Cup, the Greek defeated Mochizuki in the opening match in straight sets. In the second match, Tsitsipas defeated Harris in three sets, after losing the opening set 4-6.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Fritz is the slight favourite in this matchup, and we agree. Fritz defeated Tsitsipas in the past two head-to-head meetings. He struggled in the opening two matches this week, as he did last season. However, we expect him to gradually step up his game and beat the Greek.

That being said, Fritz winning is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Taylor Fritz winning @1.57 @bet365

Wawrinka – Baez: 07.01.2026 11:30 CEST
H2H: first meeting

Stanislas Wawrinka has lost three of his last five matches. This season at the United Cup, Wawrinka defeated Rinderknech in the opening match and lost to Cobolli in the second match, both in three tight sets.

Sebastian Baez has lost three of his last five matches. The Argentine surprisingly won both United Cup matches this week. In the opening match, Baez defeated Munar in straight sets. In the second match, he upset Fritz in three tight sets, after losing the opening set 4-6.

Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, Baez is the slight underdog in this matchup, but we disagree. He played his best tennis this week. On the other hand, Wawrinka turns 41 this season and has just played consecutive three-setters. We expect Baez to be more rested and win.

That being said, Baez winning is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Sebastian Baez winning @2.10 @bet365
