Alex Michelsen vs Adrian Mannarino prediction
Alex Michelsen progressed to the next round at the Washington Open as he defeated Mackenzie McDonald in straight sets. The American was 4-2 down in the first set but reeled off four games in a row to take the lead. He was in control for most of the second, but McDonald broke back when Michelsen was serving for the match at 5-3. Nevertheless, he would break again in the 12th game to clinch a 6-4 7-5 win.
He takes on Adrian Mannarino for a place in the quarter-finals. The Frenchman pulled off an upset in the first-round as he comfortably got past fifth seed Learner Tien. Mannarino converted both of his break points and did not concede any on serve as he wrapped up a 7-5 6-4 win after one hour and 22 minutes.
Michelsen leads the head-to-head 2-1, but this will be their first meeting on a hard court. Mannarino performed brilliantly in his previous match, and he can frustrate with his unconventional approach, but Michelsen is the home favourite.
