Pablo Carreno Busta vs Jiri Lehecka prediction
Jiri Lehecka hit the comeback trail to sink Luca Nardi and progress to the round of 16.
The Czech posted a 4-6 6-4 6-2 success over the Italian lucky loser and will now take on Pablo Carreno Busta after the qualifier upset Denis Shapovalov 6-2 6-4.
The veteran Spaniard gave a cameo of his old self against Shapo and could provide a bigger test here than his ranking suggests.
Lehecka is a more consistent customer than Denis and his big serve should provide him with a strong platform for success in this match-up. There’s no previous head-to-head but the Czech won’t give away as many cheap points and should have the greater durability over a best of three.
