Andrey Rublev vs Flavio Cobolli prediction
Andrey Rublev may well have a score to settle when he faces Flavio Cobolli for the second time.
The Italian won their first meeting to clinch the title on the clay of Hamburg earlier this year.
Rublev has been posting solid if not headline-grabbing results in recent months and is outside the top ten as a result.
Cobolli hasn’t quite hit the heights that saw him reach the last eight at Wimbledon and the world number 25 has lost his last two, including his Laver Cup debut against Joao Fonseca.
It feels like Rublev’s blistering forehand will be the trump card on a hardcourt and he could also enjoy a touch of revenge too, albeit he may be pushed to three.
