Aleksandar Kovacevic and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, both unseeded, will face off in the quarter-finals in Brisbane. This marks their first-ever meeting. Read on for our prediction of the match scheduled for Friday.
Kovacevic defeated seventh seed Cameron Norrie in two hours and 30 minutes to secure this berth. The 27-year-old, who has started his season in Brisbane, defeated Nick Kyrgios in straight sets in the opening round.
This strong start to the season has bumped him to 57th in the live ranking. The American had his best-ever campaign as a tour player last year, as he made the finals in Montpellier and Los Cabos.
Mpetshi Perricard is one win away from equaling his semi-final finish from last season. Returning for his second appearance at the Queensland Tennis Centre, the Frenchman will now target the title.
Mpetshi Perricard, who also started his season this week, defeated qualifier Rinky Hijikata in a frenetic duel. The 22-year-old battled from losing the first set and won the second and third via a tiebreaker.
He had also needed a decider in his opening round showdown with fourth seed Tommy Paul. Advancing to this round has catapulted the two-time tour champion six places to 61st in the live ranking.
