Marin Cilic vs Denis Shapovalov prediction
Marin Cilic and Denis Shapovlov meet for a seventh time in a big-name first round clash in the Netherlands.
The head-to-head stands at 3-3 but the Croatian veteran has won the last two, including a straight-sets win at the Australian Open this year.
Cilic also won 7-5 7-6 in Stuttgart in their only previous showdown on grass in 2021 and with little to choose between them in the rankings the aforementioned two results could be significant.
We anticipate lots of big-serving, so a punt on a tie-break or two may be a consideration.
