David Goffin vs Gabriel Diallo prediction
David Goffin secured another shock win over Ben Shelton to continue his fine run in Shanghai.
The Belgian upset the American in Acapulco earlier in the year and outplayed the sixth seed 6-2 6-4 here to reach the third round.
La Goff is enjoying something of a resurgence in the Asian swing after a torrid spell and will believe he’s playing well enough to cause another shockwave through the draw against Gabriel Diallo.
The Canadian was rock-solid in a 6-4 6-4 win over Benjamin Bonzi and while this will be a first meeting with Goffin at tour-level, the veteran did win a qualifier for the Australian Open back in 2024.
That match went the distance and this may well too, with Goffin rolling back the years at present and making betting against him a dicey choice.
David Goffin vs Gabriel Diallo tip: Over 2.5 sets
