Prediction published on 16/06/2023, 01:47  by Daniel Ngulu in Tennis Predictions

Fourth seed Alex de Minaur and sixth seed Tallon Griekspoor will on Friday meet in the quarterfinals at the Libema Open. The winner of this match will play second seed Jannik Sinner or unseeded Emil Ruusuvuori in the semifinals. Griekspoor has played two matches in Hertogenbosch, dropping one set in the process. To advance to this round he overwhelmed Alexei Popyrin to win in straight sets by the loss of five games. This was his 17th win of a rocky season so far that has seen him also lose 10 matches. The Dutchman hasn’t played that regularly on grass and has so far managed a record of 13 wins and seven losses since 2015. Griekspoor is currently up one place to number 37 in the live ranking.

Alex de Minaur is placed 18th in the live ranking. He began his grass court campaign by battling to a 2-1 win over Laslo Djere in the second round. The Australian has also struggled with his form this season and currently has a record of 17 wins and 11 losses. His showdown with Djere lasted for more than two hours and he will hope there are no after-effects when he faces Griekspoor. De Minaur is a strong performer on grass and has a career record of 39 wins and 19 losses on the surface. He also has the head-to-head advantage in this fixture as he won the only encounter with Griekspoor back in 2017 in Segovia.
