Tennis tips today – 14.10.2026 Who will win in Shanghai
The composition of my tennis tips today is the same as yesterday. There were four round of 16 pairings at the ATP tournament in Shanghai and two games at the WTA tournament in Wuhan.
Alcaraz was eliminated surprisingly early yesterday! One day later I bet at various betting providers like his conqueror Zizou Bergs in the match against Tommy Paul. But also the “hate duel” between Medvedev and Tsitsipas I took a closer look.
Shanghai Tips today 14.10.: Medvedev – Tsitsipas (12:00 p.m.)
Daniil Medvedev leads against Stefanos Tsitsipas comfortably with 9:3, with the Russian on hard court almost at will and in recent years the Greeks have regularly been given the opportunity to unsolvable tactical tasks.
Medvedev’s ultra-low back position takes away Tsitsipas’ powerful forehand angle, while the Greek repeatedly fell under the precise and deep returns of the former world number one.
Since Tsitsipas played on fast surfaces against Medvedev’s extremely error-resistant defensive wall intersperses too many unforced mistakes, the entire Match dynamics for the favourite.
My tip: Medvedev continues quite casually!
Shanghai betting today: Paul – Bergs (1:30 p.m.)
Zizou Bergs has caused the biggest surprise with his victory over Alcaraz of the tournament! Today he continues in the round of sixteen.
Tommy Paul and Zizou Bergs meet for the first time in Shanghai. The 15th seeded American convinces on fast Hard courts due to its excellent field movement, high recoil precision and enormously consistent defensive work.
Bergs acts variably and powerfully from the baseline, but tends to under the constant pressure of Paul’s precise balls.
Since Paul consistently takes the initiative on the opponent’s second serve, and keeps the necessary calm in the long rally, the greater experience.
My tip: Bergs comes back down to earth!
Shanghai tips today: Ruud – Auger-Aliassime (07:30 a.m.)
On hard court, Félix Auger-Aliassime leads Casper Ruud 3-2 with the Canadian winning the last duel on this surface .
On fast hard courts in Shanghai, Auger-Aliassime has the better conditions in terms of weapons: His extremely powerful first Serve and his forehand aggressiveness put Ruud under from the beginning Constant pressure.
Ruud acts as usual stable and error-resistant from the defence, but on this surface, however, it is traditionally difficult to fight against powerful attacking players to take over the game.
Since Auger-Aliassime’s first serves score high percentage points and he service game, the match dynamics speak in favor of the Canadians.
My tip: The surface clearly favors the Canadian!
Shanghai prediction today: Van de Zandschlup – Jodar (06:00)
Botic van de Zandschulp and Rafael Jodar will meet in Shanghai. The experienced Dutchman is the clear favourite on the betting markets this duel, as he has more consistency on hard courts, a higher serve hardness and reliable baseline strokes.
Jodar is committed, but at this level he does his job against a powerful Opponents usually difficult. However, since I have the Dutchman despite his deep advance at the US Open is still not among the world’s elite, I prefer the Spaniard for “Value”!
My tip: The Spaniard with good chances for the next round!
Wuhan bets today 14.10.: Kartal – Bencic (05:00)
Sonay Kartal and Belinda Bencic will meet in the second round of the WTA 1000 tournament in Wuhan for the first time on the tour.
The Swiss Bencic, seeded in 9th place, brings on the fast their usual quality with: precise, early acceptance of the balls, excellent tempo calculation and high efficiency on the first serve.
Kartal, for her part, acts very aggressively and agilely from the baseline, Bencic’s tactical maturity and its stability in long rallies to their limits.
My tip: Bencic with better nerves in the rallies!
Wuhan 14/10: Frech – Swiatek (05:00)
The two Poles Magdalena Frech and Iga Swiatek will meet at the WTA tournament in Wuhan. In a direct comparison, Swiatek leads with 1-0 after winning in straight sets on clay in Gdynia in 2022 was able to prevail.
On the fast hard courts in Wuhan, the number 7 seed Swiatek as the favorite in the game. The Pole dominates with her enormous baseline dynamics, high speed and outstanding efficiency in own serve and return.
Frech saves with a great willingness to run and solid defensive play but regularly gets into trouble with Swiatek’s aggressive pressure game the defence.
My tip: Swiatek will slow down in between!
