Facing each other for the first time as professionals, Quentin Halys and Alexander Blockx will do battle in the Chinese city of Shanghai on Friday. For those in the states, the match will take place during the early hours. Halys has played at this event twice before, reaching the second round on both occasions. Blockx will be playing in Shanghai for the first time in his relatively short career.
The question to ask: Is Quentin Halys a little too leniently priced here? At odds of +115, the answer is yes. In other words, the French player looks to have a slightly better chance of emerging successfully than the early market indicates. When we last saw Alexander Blockx, he was nowhere near his best, losing each of his last two matches against lower-ranked players.

Our Quentin Halys vs Alexander Blockx Prediction
Now is very much the time for Quentin Halys to be playing Alexander Blockx, let's be honest. The French player took to the Shanghai surface nicely last time out, winning in straight sets, and that effort should hold him in good stead against a player who has not yet played at the tournament. It's also worth noting that the Belgian has not yet played a competitive match in October, while he looked very out of sorts when losing to a lower-ranked player in straight sets at the end of September.
