The tennis action continues to come thick and fast, as is always the case around this time of year. Many of the ATP's best players are in Atlanta this week. This match put together Australia and Croatia as two players currently split by little in the rankings go head-to-head. Thanasi Kokkinakis is ranked at 88, meaning that he's four below above his opponent Borna Coric, so there really isn't much in it in that sense, but can a case be made for the Croat being favorite here? I think so.

Our Thanasi Kokkinakis vs Borna Ćorić Prediction

This is an interesting match. Both players will switch back to a hard surface for the first time in several months, while both players come into this match off the back of tasting defeat last time out. However, Borna Coric could have the mental edge here. After all, he's won each of the last three renewals of this match. Is that simple fact being accurately reflected in the early betting? I'm not sure it is. Therefore, taking odds of +120 (BetMGM) on the Coric win may just offer some all-important value for money. Our Prediction: Borna Coric to Win.
