Jiri Lehecka vs Sebastian Korda prediction
Jiri Lehecka began the defence of his title with a three set win over compatriot Tomas Machac in the first-round. Lehecka took the first set but was taken into a decider after Machac won the second on a tiebreak. However, he would dominate the third set to win 6-4 6-7 (5) 6-2 after two hours and 24 minutes. He won 79% of his first serve points.
He plays Sebastian Korda for a place in the quarter-finals. The American started his season with a win, defeating Valentin Vacherot in straight sets. Korda was 3-1 down in the second set as Vacherot plotted a comeback, but the 25-year-old reeled off five games in a row to win 7-6 (1) 6-1.
Lehecka has won all three of their previous meetings without the drop of a set. He clearly enjoys facing Korda and will head into this one confident of a fourth successive victory.
