Michael Zheng vs Miomir Kecmanovic prediction

American starlet Michael Zheng will fancy the upset in Montreal.

The 22-year-old qualifier is at a career high of 118 and has only lost a handful of matches across all tiers in recent months, making winning a habit.

Translating that consistency to the ATP tour on a regular basis remains the big ask, but there’s potential there and he is very much at home on hardcourts.

As for Miomir Kecmanovic, the Serb is some way off matching the winning tallies that has seen him become such a consistent competitor on tour over the past four seasons.

The world number 60 has just one win in his last five and will hope his experience can help him navigate this tricky opener.
