THE PREDICTION

Florida native Frances Tiafoe should enjoy this Miami Open as he looks to be coming back to some kind of form. The world number 58 played out an excellent second round match with Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open last month before defeat and there have been promising signs in his South American swing since without pulling up any trees. He did beat Stefano Travaglia in the first round of the Australian Open campaign, which was the start of the Italian’s now three-match losing streak. World number 70 Travaglia had previously made it all the way to the Great Ocean Road Open final before losing to Jannik Sinner and that looks to have taken its toll. 23-year-old Tiafoe should enjoy a limited home crowd here in Miami and can emulate his last win over Travaglia here with a straight-sets victory.
