THE PREDICTION
20-year-old Philip Sekulic beat Nuno Borges in three sets on his ATP tour debut here in Chengdu and he will break inside the top 300 for the first time for his efforts. The Aussie qualified the hard way this week to look ready for a fight in this huge opportunity against a top 20 player struggling with form in Lorenzo Musetti, who received a bye to the round of 16 as the second seed here. World number 18 Lorenzo Musetti set a career-high of 15th back in June after an excellent run to the round of 16 at Roland-Garros but the Italian has so far struggled away from his favoured clay. A three-match losing streak saw him dropped as Italy’s first option at the Davis Cup last week, although he contributed well in doubles to help his nation limp over the line in what should, hopefully, boost his confidence. Musetti should be coming through this match easily but Sekulic has enough momentum to consider taking to earn at least a set here.
