Ben Shelton vs Jiri Lehecka prediction
Ben Shelton will aim to protect a perfect record against Jiri Lehecka and book a spot in the Stuttgart final.
The American came from behind to end the run of qualifier Sho Shimabukuro 4-6 6-3 6-4 and will now tackle the Czech after the fourth seed secured an impressive 6-4 7-6 success over Frances Tiafoe.
The top seed leads the head-to-head 2-0 and has not dropped a set, including a 6-4 6-4 triumph at this tournament last year.
It’s going to be another serve-dominated affair with short rallies. That will suit both and probably counter any concerns of fatigue for Shelton, although don’t be surprised to see a breaker or Jiri bagging a first set in this match-up.
Ben Shelton vs Jiri Lehecka tip: Over 20.5 games
