THE PREDICTION
World number nine Hubert Hurkacz saw a second-successive opponent pull out from a match as Aleksandre Metreveli stood in for Nikoloz Basilashvili on Monday. The 24-year-old dropped a first-set tiebreak to Metreveli before rallying to win in three and that mini-shock could be the motivation he needs to improve at the ATP Cup after an easy opener against Aristotelis Thanos in Stefanos Tsitsipas’ stead. Tsitsipas did take to the court to face his second ATP Cup rubber and he took the first-set tiebreak before an inspired Diego Schwartzman came back to win in three. World number 13 Schwartzman has picked up from the superb form he found late last season and if Hurkacz starts this match like his last the Argentine could be up a set in the blink of an eye.
The pair share a 1-1 head-to-head record from two three-set meetings played in 2020, with Hurkacz winning at the inaugural ATP Cup and Schwartzman returning the favour on clay in Rome. There is probably a set in this exciting match for both players and given the level we have seen from Schwartzman already this week taking him to win at least one seems the wise move.
