ROBERTO BAUTISTA AGUT VS JIRI LEHECKA PREDICTION

Credit to veteran Roberto Bautista Agut for going all the way to the final in Antwerp. The 36-year-old beat Hugo Gaston in straight sets on Saturday to progress to the final. He looked strong and solid throughout and did not face a single break point such was his dominance.

He now meets Jiri Lehecka who came through a tough three-setter against Marcos Giron on Saturday. That was arguably his toughest match of the tournament so far but the Czech star rose to the occasion.

The pair have met four times before and it is the Spaniard who leads the way 3-1. It was Lehecka who won the last meeting just a couple of weeks ago in Beijing.

We really like the look of Lehecka in this final and have done all week. He’s playing at a high level, is super motivated to grab as many ranking points as he can, and has been exceptional all week.

We just think he has that extra level to go to and that will make the difference here. It could easily go three sets, but either way, we back Lehecka to be crowned champion.
