Mackenzie McDonald vs David Goffin prediction
Mackenzie McDonald last competed in Washington last week, making it through his first-round match against Colton Smith but then losing to Ben Shelton in straight sets. His best result this season was on the Challenger Tour, as he made the final in San Diego all the way back in March.
David Goffin was out of action for over two months after sustaining an injury in Madrid near the end of April. His comeback has not been particularly successful as he has just one win from his four matches. He was thrashed by Rinky Hijikata in the first-round of Wimbledon, lost in the second-round of the Gstaad Open against Juan Manuel Cerundolo and then knocked out in round one of the Washington Open by Yunchaokete Bu.
The head-to-head is 1-1, but McDonald won their most recent match at the US Open in 2021, recording a victory in straight sets. Goffin has struggled to get up to speed since his injury, which leads us to favouring McDonald on this occasion.
