THE PREDICTION
World number 39 Lorenzo Sonego lost in the first round of the Canada Masters last week to Andy Murray but he made the semi-finals of the Umag Open prior to that on his favoured clay. The Italian has three career ATP title with one on each surface to prove his all-court abilities but his best showing on hardcourts tend to be reserved for indoors, with his most prestigious final the Vienna 500 in 2020. World number 88 Alexander Shevchenko would also prefer this first meeting took place on the clay after he enjoyed a remarkable April in Madrid, winning the challenger there before a breakthrough run to the third round of the Masters. The 22-year-old recently stunned both Maxime Cressy and Sebastian Korda at the Washington Open before defeat to eventual champion Dan Evans and he qualified handsomely this weekend with victories over former top 40 talents. Three sets seem likelier than two here so consider backing Shevchenko to earn at least one of them with the momentum from qualifying.
