Reilly Opelka vs Tomas Machac prediction
Reilly Opelka advanced to the next stage of the Canadian Open after defeating Sebastian Ofner. Opelka edged a tight first set and then broke Ofner’s serve at the end of the second to win 7-6 7-5. He struck down 18 aces and saved all seven of his break points.
Tomas Machac competes in his first event since Wimbledon. He could only make the second-round at SW19, losing to qualifier August Holmgren in a dramatic five set match, despite holding match points in the fourth. The Czech has had his struggles with injuries over the season but did win a title on this surface earlier in the year in Acapulco.
The head-to-head is 2-0 in Machac’s favour. They both took place earlier this year, with Machac defeating Opelka in a dramatic five set match in Melbourne at the start of the year and then picking up a more straight-forward win in Miami two months later.
Opelka will always be competitive with that serve of his, while Machac will need to get up to speed quickly after some time away from the court. He should still get through, but the former finalist will make it a competitive encounter.
