Gael Monfils vs Ugo Humbert prediction
Grass has been the weaker surface for Monfils, as the Frenchman has a 58 percent win rate on it. His only grass-court final came at the 2017 Eastbourne International, where he lost 3-6, 4-6 against Novak Djokovic. Wimbledon has been the poorest-performing Major for Monfils as he has never gotten past the third round and has a 59 percent win rate at the tournament.
Meanwhile, Humbert has a grass-court title, as he won the 2021 Halle Open, winning 6-3, 7-6 (4) against Andrey Rublev in the final. He reached the fourth round at Wimbledon last year, losing against Carlos Alcaraz in four sets.
Humbert is the favorite to win the upcoming match as he is the seeded player and has had a better grass-court outing in the lead-up to Wimbledon.
