THE PREDICTION
This will be a fascinating rematch between 18-year-old Jakub Mensik and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina after the teenager grabbed a big upset in their first round meeting last week in Doha. Mensik set a career-high ATP world ranking of 87th by finishing runner-up to Karen Khachanov at the Qatar Open, also stunning Andy Murray, Gael Monfils and Andrey Rublev en-route, and he can break inside the top 80 with victory here after another excellent result over Borna Coric n Tuesday. World number 24 Davidovich Fokina overcame Fabian Marozsan in three sets on Tuesday to snap a three-match losing streak but the Spaniard is currently far from the level that his ranking suggests, with last summer’s excellent form yet to surface in 2024. This second clash could come closer with ADF desperate not to lose again to an up-and-comer so soon but Mensik’s rapid rise looks insatiable right now. Back the Czech to win.
TIP: JAKUB MENSIK TO WIN
