Jesper de Jong vs Mili Poljicak prediction
Jesper de Jong arrives in Umag buoyed by a title run in Bastad.
It is a major boost for the Dutchman who had just slipped outside of the world’s top 100, but is now firmly back amongst the elite.
First up for de Jong in Croatia is home wildcard Mili Poljicak, who has made very little impression on the main tour but does produce his best tennis on the clay at Challenger level.
The 21-year-old is ranked at 274 in the world and while the early rounds often provide a shock or two, we don’t see one here with the Dutchman having the edge in terms of experience, renewed confidence and consistency.
