Gabriel Diallo vs Karen Khachanov Prediction
Both the last two meetings between these two players came on hard court, both indoor and outdoor with Karen Khachanov coming out on top both times. He’ll enter this latest contest as the clear favourite after getting past experienced Frenchman Adrian Mannarino in straight sets.
Gabriel Diallo showed excellent fitness levels and real toughness to drop just three games after going 2-1 down in the sets, winning the remaining two emphatically to advance through into the second round and set up this match.
Karen Khachanov is an excellent player though and is unlikely to give Diallo to opportunity to come back on his watch. He knows what it takes to get past the Canadian and is expected to do so again here.
