Jesper de Jong vs Mariano Navone prediction
Jesper de Jong cruised past Mili Poljicak to ease into the round of 16 in Umag.
The Dutchman beat the Croatian wildcard 6-3 6-3 to set up a clash with Mariano Navone, who crushed Tomas Barrios Vera 6-1 6-2.
This will be a maiden meeting between two players of a similar age with the Argentine ranked just seven places above de Jong.
Navone certainly has a preference for the clay but de Jong showed just last week he is more than capable on the dirt with a push to the final in Bastad.
It could go either way so you may want to steer clear or take a punt on it going three.
Jesper de Jong vs Mariano Navone tip: Over 2.5 sets
