KAREN KHACHANOV VS SUMIT NAGAL PREDICTION
26-year-old Sumit Nagal set a career-high ATP world ranking of 80th last month after an excellent run to the third round of the Monte-Carlo Masters, where he took Holger Rune to three sets before defeat.
The Indian number one made history for his nation by reaching the second round of the Australian Open in January but the draw gods have not been kind as he faces world number 18 Karen Khachanov for the first time. 27-year-old Khachanov is a dependable performer at this level, reaching at least the quarter-finals at all four Grand Slams in his career so far and doing so three times on the spin with a run to the last eight here last summer.
The Russian took Jannik Sinner to three sets before defeat at the Madrid Open this time last month and he should have little trouble coming through in tight-ish straight sets here.
