JACK DRAPER VS KAREN KHACHANOV PREDICTION
Jack Draper made it through to the final in Vienna thanks to a dominant 6-2 6-4 win over Lorenzo Musetti and he will be confident coming into this clash with Karen Khachanov.
The Brit has been in excellent form this week and he has shown no ill-effects from his recent injury. He has beaten some in-form players like Tomas Machac and then Musetti and he will be confident if sealing the title here.
He meets Khachanov who had continued his strong form in Almaty last week where he won the title and is one win from making it back-to-back titles; something that is incredibly tough to do on the ATP Tour.
Khachanov dominated second seed Alex de Minaur 6-2 6-4 on Saturday to make it through and he seems unstoppable at the moment. There is nothing overly spectacular about how he is playing but he is just incredibly solid, doing all the basics right and cutting out the unforced errors.
This seems like a match that Draper will have to play very well to win as Khachanov does not look like making many mistakes. Draper has that in his locker and he will be play super aggressive looking for winners. If he keeps playing as he has and is patient when needed but aggressive at the right times, he can win the title here.
