Brandon Nakashima vs David Goffin Prediction

Brandon Nakashima was handed a kind route into the quarter-finals as Holger Rune was forced to retire from their match after just three games due to a stomach bug that has been going around in Acapulco.

Nakashima raced to a 3-0 lead but Rune was clearly struggling and now the American comes into the quarter-finals feeling fresh to face veteran David Goffin.

Goffin continues to roll back the years and the 34-year-old produced a vintage display to beat Ben Shelton 7-6 6-3. 

That will give Goffin huge confidence and he will fancy his chances of going far here given how many of the seeded players have been eliminated.

Nakashima will be sharp and fresh and that could play a factor here while he has also beaten Goffin twice in their two previous meetings. It is hard to go against Goffin this week given how well he is playing however and our play here is on the game betting as we can see this one going all the way potentially.
