Karen Khachanov vs Jakub Mensik prediction
Jakub Mensik will face Karen Khachanov for third time after easing past Martin Damm Jr.
The Czech was always in charge as he claimed a 6-3 6-4 success over the American qualifier.
The 23rd seed now faces a big-hitting contest with 13th seed Khachanov following the Russian’s 6-2 6-3 defeat of Adam Walton.
Mensik has lost both of his previous encounters with Khachanov but this will be a first showdown on clay and the youngster will have noted Karen has not been in top form of late.
Serve will dominate but we feel this a good opportunity for the Czech to break his duck against the Russian in a clash that should have plenty of games.
Karen Khachanov vs Jakub Mensik tip: Over 2.5 sets
