THE PREDICTION

World number 83 James Duckworth overcame fellow Aussie Alexei Popyrin in three sets on Monday to see each of his last three wins at tour level come against compatriots. The 30-year-old came into some of the form of his career this time last year, with the pinnacle a first Masters quarter-final reached at the Paris Masters, but he has struggled to get back to those heights following surgery before the start of this season. World number 228 Mitchell Krueger also saw off a compatriot in Christopher Eubanks in the first round to take only his fourth tour-level win of 2022. This looks a good, honest baseline slugfest between two players well capable of turning the screw to reach the quarter-finals but Duckworth is the better player of the two. A first meeting is always worth leaving out of an accumulator but otherwise back the Aussie to edge through.
