Predicted for 9. September 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
Medvedev is a three-time US Open finalist (2019, 2021 champion, 2023) and one of the best hard-court players. As 5th seed he avoids Top-4 seeds until at least the QF. The US Open draw was held August 27, 2026. Historical QF probability for a top-5 seed at a major is 50–55%. Open predictions for Zverev QF, Alcaraz SF, Sinner SF and FAA QF sit in separate draw quadrants and do not contradict Medvedev reaching the QF.

Verdict: Miss
Medvedev schied im Achtelfinale (Vierte Runde) aus, nicht im Viertelfinale. Frances Tiafoe (11. Gesetzter, USA) besiegte ihn am 6. September 2026 in drei Sätzen: 7-6 (7/1), 6-4, 7-6 (8/6). Medvedev führte in zwei der drei Sätze, verlor aber entscheidende Momente. Zudem war Medvedev in Wirklichkeit als Nr. 7 gesetzt, nicht als Nr. 5 wie in der Vorhersage angegeben.

Manchester City (2026/27 record: 5-1) host SSC Napoli on 24 November 2026 at the Etihad. Bookmaker odds imply ~80% for a City home win (quote ~1/4); a Napoli away win trades at ~10/1 (~9% implied). Statistical models assign City 66% win probability and a draw 18%. Napoli have never won away against a Premier League top-6 side in this Champions League season. Market anchor: bookmaker odds imply 79–80%; own estimate follows the conservative model value of 66%, as Napoli historically respond better to continental pressure than their domestic form alone suggests.

BVB sits 2nd in the Bundesliga after 8 matchdays (18 pts) with the best defence in the league (6 goals conceded). Bookmaker odds for a Dortmund home win imply ~79% (quote ~1.26); statistical models put BVB at 74.96%. Expected Goals: BVB 2.47 xG vs. Elversberg 0.81 xG. Elversberg failed to score in three consecutive away fixtures — no other club in the division is currently as barren on the road. Probability set slightly below market implied to account for Elversberg's proven giant-killing capacity this season.

RB Leipzig have never lost a Bundesliga home fixture against FC Augsburg (10 games: 9 wins, 1 draw). Augsburg are currently on a 6-match winless run (3 draws, 3 losses) — the longest such drought in the top flight right now. Winger Antonio Nusa is in excellent form; a Leipzig win would set a Bundesliga record against Augsburg. Bookmaker odds imply ~60% (quote ~1.65); the unblemished home record and Augsburg's poor form justify raising the estimate to 65%.
