Jiri Lehecka vs Rafael Jodar prediction
We’ve seen some excellent tennis so far from both Jiri Lehecka and Rafael Jodar with more to come here in Montreal. One of them will go forwards whilst the other will take their leave in round three. The rise of Jodar at this level has been stratospheric and now a top 20 ranked player, the sky is the limit for this 19-year-old.
But Lehecka hasn’t dropped a set so far at the Canadian Open this year and has looked superb in singles competition. He’s also savvy enough to try and counter the athleticism and aggression of Jodar. This has all the makings of a classic and backing three sets to be played is more than worthwhile.
Jiri Lehecka vs Rafael Jodar tip: Over 2.5 total sets
