Tallon Griekspoor vs Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard prediction
Tallon Griekspoor did pick up his first win of the season in Montpellier last week as a strong serving display laid the foundations for a straight sets win over Pablo Carreno Busta. However, the Dutchman could not pick up back-to-back victories as fell to a straight sets loss to Titouan Droguet in the next round. Griekspoor crashed out in the first-round of the Australian Open and has been lacking form for quite some time, stretching back to the midway point of last season.
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard was forced to retire from his round one match at the Open Occitanie, as he was struck by the ball in a bizarre incident during his encounter with compatriot Arthur Gea. He has already reached two quarter-finals this season in Brisbane and Auckland. On the eve of the tournament, it was announced that Mpetshi Perricard had split from his coach Emmanuel Planque after four years.
Griekspoor leads the head-to-head after a straight sets win in Indian Wells last year. Despite his indifferent form, the Dutchman will be determined to perform well at a home event, but Mpetshi Perricard is likely to make it a competitive match with his strong first serve indoors.
