After reaching the final in Tokyo, 22nd seed Jiri Lehecka is hoping for another deep run in the outdoor hard court Shanghai Masters. Round three of this tournament will see him take on the 12th seed Rafael Jodar. Lehecka appears to be in the better form and our prediction is he will win.
Whoever the victor is, they will face either eighth seed Arthur Fils or unseeded Botic van de Zandschulp in round three.
Jiri Lehecka made it all the way to the final of the Japan Open, only to lose to Carlos Alcaraz. That was his second ATP Tour outdoor hard court final after previously reaching the title decider in Miami.
His first match in this tournament saw him defeat Nuno Borges in three sets, losing the middle one.
There's been one previous meeting between the pair and Jodar won that on this surface in Montreal two months ago.
Rafael Jodar has a 27-11 outdoor hard court record in 2026. He has reached the final in Washington and also the Canberra Challenger Tour event in January.
Jodar has been struggling in recent ATP Tour events. He had lost three in a row in singles tournaments before this event.
His opening match was also a struggle as he needed three sets to get past Thiago Agustin Tirante.
