Our Brandon Nakashima vs Alejandro Tabilo Prediction
Brandon Nakashima seems like a solid pick to cover -2.5 games against Alejandro Tabilo. The American is 17-11 on the hard court this year and 6-5 against players ranked from top-21 to top-50 on the ATP World Rankings. Meanwhile, Tabilo is only 2-5 against the ATP top-50.
The fact that he had to win five consecutive matches to secure a semifinal seat raises questions about his endurance ahead of his matchup against a technically sound Nakashima, who can take the ball early or score points in long rallies. Of course, Tabilo will not go down without a fight. He will try to give Nakashima his toughest match of this competition, but the American will have this one in the bag via a straight-set win.
