THE PREDICTION

27-year-old Sebastian Oner will set a new career-high ATP world ranking of around 49th, breaking the top 50 for the first time, after overcoming fellow Austrian Dominic Thiem from a set down on Sunday. Ofner reached the round of 16 of a Grand Slam for the first time at Roland-Garros in June but this run on hardcourts in Astana has come as a real surprise to suggest he could enjoy a career-best season next year. World number 34 Adrian Mannarino has enjoyed one of his best seasons on tour at 35 years young, winning the Hall of Fame Open in July as well as enjoying strong runs in Toronto and Cincinnati. The Frenchman beat another Austrian, Jurij Rodionov, in straight sets on Sunday to continue his solid run this week but Ofner looks ready to offer him the biggest challenge yet. A first meeting between the two leaves more questions than answers so take Mannarino to earn at least a set to leave the victor up to chance.
