Taylor Fritz vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina prediction
For the second consecutive match, Fritz was pushed to five sets. Nevertheless, he had all the answers to the questions asked by Diallo. He won 80 percent of points behind his first serve, while striking a massive 50 winners against a measly 16 unforced errors. He also extended his unbeaten run to six matches, starting with his triumph at last week's Eastbourne Open.
Davidovich Fokina matched his career-best result at Wimbledon by reaching the third round for the second time. He struck 46 winners compared to 36 unforced errors. He will now aim to extend his winning record in this match-up with another win over the American.
The two crossed paths a week ago in the Eastbourne semifinals, with Fritz advancing in three sets. His big serve is a massive asset on grass, hitting a combined 54 aces across his two matches here. The ability to win so many free points on serve puts his opponents under massive pressure.
Fritz also won the title in Stuttgart in addition to his triumph at Eastbourne, bringing his record on grass to 10-1 this season. While Davidovich Fokina has given him trouble in the past, the American's current form makes him the favorite to come through this clash.
Pick: Taylor Fritz to win in four sets.
