The top two seeds have made it through to the title decider in the Next Gen Finals. Top seed Learner Tien takes on second-seeded Alexander Blockx in Sunday's final. Can Tien end the unbeaten run Blockx has enjoyed in Jeddah this week? Read our match prediction below.
Learner Tien is ranked 88 places ahead of his Belgian opponent. The American is at 28th in the rankings and in recent months has been the losing finalist in Beijing and then the champion in Metz, both ATP Tour events.
He got off to a poor start in this indoor hard court tournament for the best players aged 20 or under. Tien lost to Rafael Jodar after having four match points. He hasn't looked back since then though with three wins in a row.
Saturday saw him beat Nishesh Basavareddy in his semi-final, losing only six games in three sets.
Alexander Blockx is the only player this week to have won all four of his matches. The Belgian has only lost two sets this week but had a tough semi-final against fifth-seeded Nicolai Budkov Kjaer.
He won in straight sets but two of the three played went to a tie-break. Side bets on each set ending 4-3 could well be profitable in this final. Our main prediction for this final is a win for Learner Tien.

Our Learner Tien vs Alexander Blockx Prediction
Learner Tien is the only player in this tournament who is in the top 100. He's struggled at times to prove his superiority over the rest of the field but could so easily have won all four of his matches this week but for failing to convert match points in his opener.
Alexander Blockx has won all four of his matches this week but had to go to two tie-breaks in his semi-final. The two players are 1-1 in previous meetings, both played in the juniors. Our Learner Tien v Alexander Blockx prediction is Learner Tien wins.
