Laslo Djere vs Dominic Thiem: Austrian Open 2023 Preview, Schedule, Date, Form Guide, Head to Head, Live Streaming

Laslo Djere is showcasing impressive mental and physical prowess in Kitzbuhel. Despite a taxing week in Hamburg before, he’s progressively excelling in the Austrian clay event. He yielded only ten games to Christopher O’Connell in the first round, nine to Thiago Seyboth Wild in the second, and just six to Pedro Cachin in the quarters. Previously in Hamburg, Djere’s notable victories against players like Etcheverry and Musetti led him to finish as the runner-up against Alexander Zverev. He last achieved back-to-back semifinal appearances on the main tour two years ago. Though he holds a modest 3-11 record in completed semifinal matches, he’s experienced disappointments, including one in Kitzbuhel three years ago against Yannick Hanfmann.

Dominic Thiem’s long-awaited resurgence in the 2023 season seems to be unfolding at Kitzbuhel, pleasing his home crowd. Making his first semifinal appearance this year is noteworthy, especially achieved with consecutive comeback wins in three sets. This success is set to rejuvenate his confidence and self-belief in his game. Since his return from a 2022 injury break, the 2019 ATP Kitzbuhel champion has grappled with forehand issues, impacting his morale. However, in Kitzbuhel, he’s shown forehand improvement and regained some confidence. This marks a significant step in his journey to rekindle his career. Despite losing all four main tour semifinal matches since beating Novak Djokovic three years ago, his recent achievements hint at progress.

Laslo Djere

Dominic Thiem

Head to Head

Head-to-head record is equal at 1-1. If both players are in peak form, Dominic Thiem would likely secure a straightforward victory. Nevertheless, Thiem’s current performance falls short of his best, while Djere is in impressive shape – a fact that should be acknowledged. Djere previously triumphed over a less-fit Thiem in their sole clay encounter in Rio de Janeiro four years ago. Given Djere’s strong form, he holds a slight advantage to replicate that outcome in Kitzbuhel.
