Daniel Altmaier vs Hugo Gaston prediction
Daniel Altmaier headed into Wimbledon on the back of a fantastic run to the semi-finals of the Halle Open. This included a brilliant win over former world number one Daniil Medvedev in the last eight. However, he lost in the first-round at the All England Club to Alex Molcan in a match which spanned over two days. Altmaier began the season poorly, but has managed to pick up more results over the past two months.
He faces Hugo Gaston in round one. The Frenchman also suffered an early exit at SW19 as he was swept aside by Stefanos Tsitsipas, despite winning his three qualifying matches. Gaston responded well in Braunschweig last week, making it all the way to the final. He failed to win the title after a loss to Jan Choinski.
The head-to-head is 1-1, but Gaston does lead 1-0 on clay. Altmaier’s consistency could give him the edge on this surface, but Gaston will look to disrupt his opponent’s rhythm with his variety, and he will also take confidence from his recent displays.
Daniel Altmaier vs Hugo Gaston tip: Both players to win a set
