Joao Fonseca vs Tomas Machac prediction
Joao Fonseca remains undefeated in Grand Slam first-round matches as he produced a brilliant performance to beat Miomir Kecmanovic in straight sets. The Brazilian recovered from a break down in the first two sets to go clear in the tiebreaks, before breaking on two occasions right at the end of the third to win 7-6 7-6 6-4. This was a measured display from the Brazilian, who still produced some moments of brilliant offensive play.
Tomas Machac is his next opponent. Machac easily dismantled Luca Nardi in the first-round, winning 6-3 6-1 6-1. He conceded just three break points during the match, with the Czech picking up his first win in three matches after a period of poor form.
This is likely to be one of the most exciting matches in round two. Fonseca will look to take the match to the Czech from the off and be the aggressor, with Machac absorbing the pace and counterpunching when the opportunity arises. The Brazilian seems to raise his game at the slams and we give him the edge.
