THE PREDICTION
Former world number 25 Ugo Humbert looks to be making greater strides back to his best level on tour after a truly horrendous 2022 saw him drop back outside the top 130. The current number 77 beat in-form Bernabe Zapata Miralles in straight sets on Wednesday to back-up form from a runner-up finish at a Challenger in his native France last weekend and his recent run to the third round of the Australian Open suggests optimism can be approached again. This could be the match of the day on Friday against world number 30 Denis Shapovalov, who is always as significant a threat as he is vulnerable early-on at tournaments. The 23-year-old has lost three of his last four matches on tour since a third-round exit to Hubert Hurkacz in five sets at Melbourne but he remains the favourite to come through here as he leads their head-to-head record 3-1. Two left-handers facing each other is always a fascinating watch as players often have to find new weapons to rely on and that could be where an improving Humbert gets an upper-hand. Take this match to see at least one tiebreak, as three of their previous four have done, and leave the winner up to chance.
