Jiri Lehecka vs Lorenzo Musetti prediction
Jiri Lehecka is targeting back-to-back wins after ending a losing run against Sebastian Korda.
The Czech won 88% on his first serve points and converted two of his three break opportunities to edge out the American 6-3 7-6 and savour a much-needed return to form on the clay.
Lehecka now meets Lorenzo Musetti, who came from a set and a break down to grind out a 4-6 7-5 6-3 triumph over the Chinese world number 67, Yunchaokete Bu.
The Italian had the crowd support but took a while to find his best tennis, particularly off his forehand, before some service wobbles from his opponent handed him a lifeline.
The number 13 seed rattled 35 winners, including one inspired backhand return to snatch the second set, and converted three of six break points to secure a deserved win in the end.
Musetti and Lehecka will now lock horns for the third time with the Czech winning on both of their previous showdowns on hard courts.
In these surroundings, Musetti is capable of beating anyone when he’s on-song, but we are going to back the big serving Lehecka to be more consistent on the day.
