Jack Draper vs Reilly Opelka prediction
Jack Draper will tackle the big-serving Reilly Opelka for the first time in Miami.
The Brit will be buoyed by how he has hit the ground running since returning from injury and will want to kick on here.
Patience could be key against Opelka, who so often takes the racquet of his opponent’s hand if he has rhythm on the first delivery.
The American edged Nuno Borges 6-7 6-2 7-6 last time out and is always likely to force a breaker.
Jack knows how to deliver in the big moments and the way he edged Novak Djokovic at Indian Wells will give him instant belief that he doesn’t need time to re-adapt to business-end pressure.
Opelka has the capability to take a set and force an upset here. There’s very much a chance of that, but Draper is a man on a mission to get back to the top ten ASAP and he should grit his way through even if it gets tricky.
