It's an American versus French battle in the second-to-last game of the Round of 32 as Aleksandar Kovacevic and Valentin Royer square off for a final 16 spot in this ATP 250 at Hangzhou. See our best match prediction below.
We're backing the Frenchman to overcome the American in China on Friday. Although this would be their first meeting, recent stats and tournament performances have swung the betting odds in favor of Royer, and we couldn't agree more.
Royer has won three of his last four singles, while comfortably beating a tough Eliot Spizzirri (another American) in the previous round 2-1. Notably, Royer’s 6-3 record in the last nine games is much better than Kovacevic’s 2-7 run.
Kovacevic’s RO32 game was cancelled, so he faces Royer now. But coming off back-to-back, with the latest at the hands of Coleman Wong (3-0), must've surely done a number on his confidence, especially after losing 16 of his last 25 games. What's more, Kovacevic has lost six of his last eight on hardcourt, while Royer has won seven of his last ten on this surface.
