After working their way through the Rome Masters qualifiers, Jesper De Jong and Alexander Shevchenko will be facing off in the first round. The two are meeting for the first time, with Alejandro Davidovich Fokina awaiting the winner. Read on for our prediction.
Neither of these two is a regular face in the main draw on the tour. As for De Jong, he is here as a lucky loser, having fallen to Thiago Seyboth Wild in the qualifying final.
The last time he played on the tour in a main draw was at Barcelona, and he lost to Andrey Rublev in straight sets. He's lost four of the last six matches.
Shevchenko improved his record for the season with two wins in the qualifiers. He beat Juan Pablo Ficovich and Marton Fucsovics in qualification in straight sets.
Still, he comes into this match as the underdog, having lost 16 of his 26 matches thus far. He is also on a losing record on clay, having compiled a 6-8 this season.
Shevchenko returns to the main draw of a tour event after missing the mark in Madrid. In the last nine main draw matches at the tour level, the Kazakh managed only two wins and lost all the rest.

Our Jesper De Jong vs Alexander Shevchenko Prediction
Alexander Shevchenko may want to view himself as a favorite in this match. He has played more at the main draw stage in ATP tour events and has better experience. However, that may fail to give him an edge here, as he has suffered seven defeats in the last nine main draw games at this level.
De Jong is playing his first main draw match at the Masters level, and coming here on a winning record will give him a psychological boost. Our prediction for Jesper De Jong v Alexander Shevchenko is that Jesper De Jong wins the match.
