THE PREDICTION
23-year-old Slovakian Alex Molcan has been in superb form all week long in Belgrade, reaching the quarter-finals here without a dropping a set from the qualifiers and handing Peda Krstin a double bagel on Wednesday. The world number 255’s form makes for an interesting first meeting against 37-year-old Fernando Verdasco, who rolled back the years to beat Adrian Mannarino in yesterday in fine fashion. That win over world number 36 Mannarino backed up a strong performance against Lucas Pouille on Monday and the Spaniard should have more than enough to weather a likely strong start from Molcan. Verdasco to win this outright is the solid option here but you could take this match to see three sets considering the young Slovak’s form.
