Adrian Mannarino vs Christopher O’Connell prediction
Adrian Mannarino will hope a run on his favoured surface can propel him back into the world’s top 100.
The veteran Frenchman is a former champion at the Libema Open and is a dangerous opponent on the turf.
The 36-year-old reached the quarter-finals at the Birmingham Challenger last week and has a reprieve here as a lucky loser after being beaten in the second round of qualifying.
World number 80 Christopher O’Connell doesn’t really have the same sort of track record on grass and lost in his opener in Birmingham.
The 31-year-old Aussie has only won one of his last nine matches including qualifiers and lost in a tight three-setter in his only prior meeting with Mannarino.
If the French veteran can keep points short, he’s a good shout for the upset in terms of ranking.
