THE PREDICTION
World number 72 Mackenzie McDonald is riding a three-match losing streak into the Cincinnati Masters but he will be confident of causing an upset, at least in terms of rankings, as a home hopeful here. The American has beaten world number 29 Nikoloz Basilashvili twice this season without dropping a set at the Rotterdam Open on hard and Roland-Garros on clay, and the Georgian also brings a three-match losing streak into the early clash on Sunday. 30-year-old Basilashvili has not played for almost a month since losing to Aslan Karatsev in the first round of the Hamburg Open and barring a run to the Qatar Open finals this season he has endured a poor run, with a 12-22 record. Leave matches involving the erratic Georgian well out of any promising accumulators but otherwise back McDonald to win outright.
