Zachary Svajda vs Arthur Fils prediction

Arthur Fils will be seeking a kick-start in Montreal.

The Frenchman has only won one of his last five but will perhaps be pleased and confident he can go again now the grass swing is over.

The Frenchman will face Zach Svajda for the first time after the American world number 87 progressed when Denis Shapovalov retired trailing 6-4 4-6 0-3.

That win will be a real tonic for Svajda, whose form hasn’t been great in recent months, but it will be a tall order to take down Fils if the 18th seed's fearsome forehand is firing.
