Enjoy!<\/p>\n<h2>Paris Olympics Day 2 Men&#8217;s Doubles Predictions<\/h2>\n<h4>Kevin Krawietz and Tim Putz (Germany) vs Daniil Medvedev and Roman Safiullin (Neutral)<\/h4>\n<p><em>Yesh<\/em><br \/>\nHere we have a matchup of doubles specialists vs pure power. Medvedev\u2019s game isn\u2019t meant for doubles\u2014then again, it\u2019s not meant for clay and he has plenty of success anyway. But I think the Germans\u2019 proficiency with the game will matter more here.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Krawietz and Putz in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[tgdcta items=&#8221;1&#8243; id=&#8221;170460&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4>John Peers and Matthew Ebden (Australia) vs Benjamin Hassan and Hady Habib (Lebanon)<\/h4>\n<p><em>Yesh<\/em><br \/>\nThe Lebanese team entered the draw by having two men in singles, but neither made the singles draw on ranking alone. This should be a great experience for them at the Olympics, but it won\u2019t be a long stay.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Peers and Ebden in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski (Great Britain) vs Tomas Machac and Adam Pavlasek (Czech Republic)<\/h4>\n<p><em>Yesh<\/em><br \/>\nThis might be one of the round\u2019s most lopsided matches. The Brits are a strong doubles team. The Czechs are not.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Salisbury and Skupski in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Taylor Fritz and Tommy Paul (United States) vs Milos Raonic and Felix Auger-Aliassime (Canada)<\/h4>\n<p><em>Yesh<\/em><br \/>\nThis North American battle should be fun. All four players are pretty strong singles players, though Raonic\u2019s health is in question. If he\u2019s healthy, though, his length might make the difference in this match that will be decided by tiny margins.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Raonic and Auger-Aliassime in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[tgdcta items=&#8221;1&#8243; id=&#8221;170476&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>Other Olympic Predictions:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-mens-day-2-predictions-ruud-daniel\" target=\"_self\">Men\u2019s day two singles including Casper Ruud vs Taro Daniel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-mens-day-2-predictions-musetti-monfils\" target=\"_self\">Men\u2019s day two singles including Lorenzo Musetti vs Gael Monfils<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-mens-day-2-predictions-zverev-munar\" target=\"_self\">Men\u2019s day two singles including Alexander Zverev vs Jaume Munar<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-mens-day-2-predictions-nadal-fucsovics\" target=\"_self\">Men\u2019s day two singles including Rafael Nadal vs Marton Fucsovics<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-womens-day-2-predictions-krejcikova-sorribes-tormo\" target=\"_self\">Women\u2019s day two singles including Barbora Krejcikova vs Sara Sorribes Tormo<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-womens-day-2-predictions-wozniacki-sherif\" target=\"_self\">Women\u2019s day two singles including Caroline Wozniacki vs Mayar Sherif<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-womens-day-2-predictions-pegua-golubic\" target=\"_self\">Women\u2019s day two singles including Jessica Pegula vs Viktoriya Golubic<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-womens-day-2-predictions-gauff-tomljanovic\" target=\"_self\">Women\u2019s day two singles including Coco Gauff vs Ajla Tomljanovic<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-day-2-mens-doubles-predictions-tsitsipas-tsitsipas-borges-cabral\" target=\"_self\">Men\u2019s day two doubles including Tsitsipas and Tsitsipas vs Borges and Cabral<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-day-2-mens-doubles-predictions-murray-evans-nishikori-daniel\" target=\"_self\">Men\u2019s day two doubles including Murray and Evans vs Nishikori and Daniel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2024\/07\/27\/paris-olympics-day-2-womens-doubles-predictions-garcia-parry-schuurs-rus\" target=\"_self\">Women\u2019s day two doubles including Garcia and Parry vs Schuurs and Rus<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Main Photo Syndication: Desert Sun<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The tennis tournaments at the Paris Olympics continue with ten men\u2019s doubles matches on Sunday.
