THE PREDICTION

This should be an enjoyable, rip-roaring battle between hard-hitting world number 22 Nikoloz Basilashvili, the defending champion here in Doha, and “Iron Man of tennis” Marton Fucsovics. World number 38 Fucsovics leads their head-to-head 3-2 with, remarkably, all five of their meetings taking place in 2019. The last tussle was a five-set thriller in the first round of the US Open that Basilashvili eventually scraped through and a decider looks likely once again here. Fucsovics has played one match more, with a tiebreak in each against Lloyd Harris and Soonwoo Kwon suggesting opting for at least one could be a useful addition here. Take Basilashvili to win at least one set as the just about likelier winner and then you could consider adding at least a tiebreak, with two played between them over their last three matches.
