Alexander Bublik vs Marton Fucsovics prediction

Tenth seed Alexander Bublik put it a really professional performance against USA’s Jenson Brooksby in the first round, winning 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 to advance through. He hit 13 aces and also won almost three quarters of points on his first serve, restricting Brooksby to just one successful break point out of eight.

Marton Fucsovics got better as he went on vs Camilo Ugo Carabelli, racing home after edging a tight first-set via tie-break. After winning that tie-breaker, Fucsovics dropped just three games across the following two sets. However, Bublik represents significantly tougher opposition for the Hungarian.

Fucsovics has an extremely high ceiling and fitness levels, which should test Bublik. The latter plays a more solid game and is likely to prove more consistent over the course of this match. Neither are expected to make it through in straight sets this time around, so consider backing over 3.5 total sets regardless of the eventual winner.

Alexander Bublik vs Marton Fucsovics tip: Over 3.5 total sets
