Both Shintaro Mochizuki and Mackenzie McDonald will be looking for a RO32 to place as they battle it out in the Athens Open qualification final. While there's much debate about who'll win their third-ever clash, we might've already found a sharp bet in their set total games. Here's our best Shintaro Mochizuki vs Mackenzie McDonald match prediction.

In the only two previous meetings between Shintaro Mochizuki and Mackenzie McDonald, we found that both 1st sets failed to reach ten games. What's more interesting is that this has been a very strong trend in their most recent games.
