Taylor Fritz vs Gael Monfils Prediction

Taylor Fritz continues to impresses as his charge towards the latter stages in Melbourne continues. He is still yet to drop a set and has only conceded eight games so far. The expectation is that he’s in for a tougher test against a wily Gael Monfils, but Fritz remains the clear favourite and for good reason.

Monfils is a fighter and boasts the game to go toe-to-toe with Fritz, but when taking into account the clinical nature of the latter’s Tennis over the course of this competition so far, it will be difficult for Monfils to keep up with him.

In the end, expect Fritz to simply wind up too strong for the Frenchman, although he will certainly not have it his own way over the course of this third round encounter.
