Emilio Nava vs Tomas Machac prediction

Tomas Machac will aim to end a three-match losing run in Miami.

The Czech won the Adelaide title in January but has only featured at three tournaments since.

Emilio Nava is on a similar run of three straight losses across all tiers and has generally found tour-level wins hard to come by.

If Machac can ignite on the first serve he should have too much and it is very much on his racquet in this one.
