THE PREDICTION

World number 23 Denis Shapovalov conceded just four games in the round of 16 to continue his solid recent form, something of a novelty for the usually unpredictable maverick. 23-year-old Shapovalov finished runner-up to Yoshihito Nishioka at the Korea Open last weekend in his first tour final of the season but he still owns just one title from the 2019 Stockholm Open. Former world number 12 Borna Coric has taken out two tough opponents so far in Thanasi Kokkinakis and recent San Diego champion Brandon Nakashima without dropping a set. The Croat recently stormed to a first Masters title at the Cincinnati Open in a quicker-than-expected return to form from a long injury lay-off and he looks the more dependable player to back in this potential thriller on Friday. Back Coric to win at least a set inside an accumulator or take him to win outright on his own, with a three-set result going his way the last time these players met.
