THE PREDICTION

Both world number 66 Adrian Mannarino and number 80 Brandon Nakashima are better players than their current rankings, with the Frenchman especially impressing in parts this season. The 33-year-old reached the round of 16 at the Australian Open for a first time with victories over Hubert Hurkacz and Aslan Karatsev before a well-contested three-set defeat to eventual champion Rafael Nadal. Mannarino reached three quarter-finals on the spin after Melbourne before losing to Taylor fritz in the first round of the Mexican Open last time out and that working level puts him ahead of 20-year-old Nakashima at this moment in time. Nakashima lost to Mannarino in the round of 16 of the Delray Beach Open last month in three sets to suggest backing the Frenchman to win outright is a reasonable option. The suitably cautious pick is for Mannarino to win at least a set in what could be a tight one.
