Sinner has been a beacon of consistency this season, while Mannarino has been all over the place.

The latter has had a few good results here and there, but has struggled to replicate his best tennis on a weekly basis. The Frenchman's lone quarterfinal at the Masters 1000 level was notably at the 2017 Canadian Open. Based on that previous success, he might feel inspired to put up a good showing in this match.

Mannarino handled Rinderknech quite well in the first round and didn't even face a single break point while serving five aces. He committed 10 unforced erros and hit almost twice the number of winners, at 19. If he's able to repeat or even improve upon this performance, Sinner could have a challenge on his hands.

Mannarino's lefty serve is difficult to contend with at times. However, Sinner is a capable returner and ranks 12th on the tour with respect to return games won this year. The Frenchman also flattens out his groundstrokes most of the time, while the Italian hits his shots with considerable topspin.

Mannarino's record against top 20 players stands at 2-6 this year and he has lost his last six matches in a row against them. He often struggles to get the better of players ranked considerably higher than him, and that's likely to be the case against Sinner as well.

Pick: Jannik Sinner to win in straight sets.
