Adrian Mannarino vs Ben Shelton prediction
Adrian Mannarino continued his good form as he beat Adam Walton in the first-round of the Dallas Open. The Frenchman was struggling for results before the Open Occitanie last week, but made a surprise run to the final, losing to Felix Auger-Aliassime. Mannarino was never in trouble here as he broke Walton’s serve five times on his way to a 6-4 6-2 win after one hour and 24 minutes.
He takes on second seed Ben Shelton next. He got his campaign up and running with a straight sets win over Gabriel Diallo. Shelton broke at the start of both sets and saved all three break points he offered up as he won 6-4 6-4.
Mannarino holds the edge in the head-to-head as he leads 3-1. Their last match was at the US Open, with Shelton being forced to retire at two sets all. He will be motivated to get one over the Frenchman, and the quick court conditions utilise his big strengths, like his strong first serve and attacking groundstrokes.
