Stan Wawrinka vs Borna Coric prediction
Wawrinka is one of the veterans on the Tour, but his backhand can still pack a lot of punch. Coric has a good backhand as well, hence, one can expect to witness a number of cross-court backhand exchanges in the match. Wawrinka's ability to hit the down-the-line shot with his backhand to the open court will be a key aspect in the match.
Coric, however, has age on his side, being 12 years younger than Wawrinka. He should look to make Wawrinka run as much as possible on Sunday. Should the rallies get longer, it will help Coric a lot. The Croat will look to take the match into the third set. However, if Wawrinka is able to play close to his best, he should be able to squeeze out a win. The Swiss at his best can still prove to be a handful for most opponents.
Pick: Stan Wawrinka to win in three sets
