Daniel Merida vs Liam Draxl prediction
Daniel Merida arrives in Montreal aiming to claim his first main draw win on hardcourts.
The Spaniard is enjoying a strong first season on tour and recently took the title on clay in Umag.
The world number 61’s quality on the dirt is clear and now he will want to showcase his ability on hard.
Wildcard Liam Draxl may provide a good starting point. The Canadian will hope to use ‘home’ know-how to spring an upset, but the world number 211’s record at the top level is limited and Merida is full of confidence.
