THE PREDICTION
World number seven Andrey Rublev avoided a potential banana skin on Monday with an assured victory over Adrian Mannarino, snapping the Frenchman’s six-match winning streak. The 25-year-old has arguably been in sub-par form since the start of the hardcourt swing but he still managed to reach the quarter-finals of the US Open, for a fourth time, before defeat to eventual runner-up Daniil Medvedev. World number 12 Tommy Paul has, similarly, endured some odd up-and-down for in recent months but his victory over Carlos Alcaraz at the Canada Masters is proof of what he is capable on this surface. The 26-year-old overcame a tough assault by young Arthur Fils in three tight sets on Monday to back-up a rapid opener over Sebastian Ofner but there is certainly an extra gear missing right now for the American. Both Paul and Rublev could be considered jacks of all trades, particularly as effective all-courters, and that is reflected in their five tight matches played so far. Three of that number saw sets go both ways but Rublev leads 4-1 to look the slight favourite here. Back the Russian to earn at least a set inside an accumulator or consider the three set option on its own.
