Gael Monfils/Elina Svitolina vs Felix Auger Aliassime/Alexandra Ealaprediction

Whilst he lost his first-round match alongside Naomi Osaka, the experience Gael Monfils will have gained playing this short and sharp tournament should stand him in good stead for this year. Elina Svitolina is a fast learner and a good player, so she should be able to easily take in any advice Monfils has and adopt her game accordingly.

Felix Auger Aliassime and Alexandra Eala may be the more exciting duo on paper. But these matches are won on the court and it would be no surprise if they struggled to adapt quickly to this fast mixed-doubles format. Therefore, the smart move would be to back Monfils and Svitolina advancing.
