THE PREDICTION

Both world number 31 Filip Krajinovic and number 40 Nick Kyrgios battled through five-set marathons on Tuesday and this second round clash is an intriguing one. 30-year-old Krajinovic had never won a match on grass until this month but the Serb has stumbled upon a game for the surface that saw him a highly unexpected runner-up at Queen’s two weeks ago. Krajinovic beat big-servers like Sam Querrey and Marin Cilic on his way to a straight-sets defeat to Matteo Berrettini in the final but he will face a similarly powerful hammer on Thursday in former world number 13 Kyrgios. 27-year-old Kyrgios has courted more controversy this week after admitting to spitting at a fan and it remains to be seen how he will be received in the second round. For once, the Aussie comes into a Grand Slam with significant match practice after deep runs in Stuttgart and Halle and he should be recovered enough to enter this match the slight favourite.

Back Kyrgios to win at least two sets as the likelier of two capable victors and do not underestimate Krajinovic with five wins on grass in two weeks.
