David Goffin vs Arthur Rinderknech prediction

Arthur Rinderknech has the chance to gain instant revenge against David Goffin.

The Frenchman lost 6-3 6-2 to the veteran Belgian in qualifying but the withdrawal of Tomas Martin Etcheverry means Rinderknech gets a reprieve as a lucky loser.

In a strange quirk of fate, he now meets La Goff again in the main draw, but will need to overturn a poor head-to-head record.

Goffin won their two tour-level matches in straight sets last year and although Rinderknech sits 33 places above his opponent in 54th place in the rankings, the psychology of the match-up means the 34-year-old Belgian is likely to come out on top again.
