The Australian Open will enter its 10th matchday on 26 January, on which the men's singles quarterfinals will continue. Title-winning favourite Medvedev will be playing again again against tournament no. 9 seed Aliassim. Medvedev has already won 11 consecutive Grand Slams, can he continue his winning streak in this game?
Since last season, Medvedev has taken a career leap forward, winning seven consecutive games at the US Open last year, ending Djokovic's 27-game streak of Grand Slams in the final, leaving his opponents out of the annual Grand Slam. After winning his first career Grand Slam title, Medvedev continued his outstanding performances this season. At the beginning of the season, apart from the first defeat in the ATP Cup, Medvedev has achieved a record of seven consecutive wins.
Medvedev did not win the last round of the tournament easily, and he defeated the American Player Cressy in four sets to reach the quarter-finals of this Year's Australian Open. After beating Cressi, Medvedev has won 49 games at a Grand Slam. If she can beat Aliassim this time, he will reach the milestone of 50 grand slam wins in his career.
Aliasim defeated Cilic in the last round of reversals to reach the quarterfinals of his career for the first time at the Australian Open. Aliasim got off to a good start to the season, having won the ATP Cup with Canada at the start of the season. After coming to the Australian Open, Aliassim eliminated two seeded players, Evans and Cilic, in two consecutive rounds.
Medvedev and Aliassym have met a total of three times before, and Medvedev has a record of total victory. The two first met in the 2018 Rogers Cup, when Medvedev reversed the victory. Last year's US Open semi-final Medvedev swept Ariassim to advance, and at the beginning of this year's ATP Cup Medvedev swept the egg. From the comparison of strengths and the analysis of the battle records of the two sides, Medvedev must occupy a certain advantage.
The match will be played at 16:30 Beijing time on January 26, when the CCTV Sports Channel will broadcast the match live. Can Medvedev continue his Grand Slam winning streak? Will Aliasim achieve revenge? Fans who support both players remember to keep an eye on the game on time.
