Rafael Nadal vs Vasek Pospisil Tennis Prediction

Rafael Nadal

At 32, Nadal feels like his second youth, playing sensationally in 2018, with 24 hard-wins in 25 matches. In fact, if we relate to all surfaces, he has only 5 defeats in 47 games. The US Open is Grand Slam where he has participated 13 times before and where he has been in three editions. In the first round, Rafa crossed Ferrer, who was forced to retire to 6-3, 3-4 for Nadal.

Vasek Pospisil

After hardly grabbing one of the last places on the main US Open, Vasek took advantage of the available draw and eliminated Lukas Lacko in 3 sets.
Thus, the Canadian came for the third time in the second round of 8 active entries. However, he has never gone through this phase and probably will not even do it at this edition.

Tennis Prediction of the Day Rafael Nadal vs Vasek Pospisil

I chose to count on a short game, finishing after 3 sets and a maximum of 29 games, and Nadal will observe her favorite status.
The Spaniard is more rested than his opponent, given that in the first round he played only one and a half because of the withdrawal of the nationalist David Ferrer, while Vasek defeated Lukas Lacko in 3 sets.
Spaniard is going through a big day, coming to the US Open after winning the Masters Tournament in Toronto, so I see him continue on the same wavelength and impose himself.
Rafa has only one defeat in 25 matches played on the outdoor hardcore this year, which Pospisil has to fear, considering that he meets the most in the form of tennis players in the ATP circuit.
The Canadian has no need for an opponent like Nadal. Well served Vasek, but Rafa is the best tennis player on the way back, so I anticipate only one scenario, namely a clear victory of the Iberian.
