Sebastian Ofner vs Alexei Popyrin Prediction: Sebastian Ofner won't win the second time

Two evenly matched opponents square off in an exciting encounter. Both players have lacked consistency in form and look set to set things right. Sebastian has the upper hand based on form but he's yet to prove his worth with a tougher opponent. The last time he did, he suffered a 3-0 trashing in the hands of Alexander Zverev.

Sebastian has enjoyed some nice wins between the two. 4 wins and 1 loss in his last 5 games is a good record for an average player. That single defeat came against world number 2, Alexander Zverev which doesn't come as a surprise anyway. But the fact is Sebastian Ofner plays better against average and lower ranked players.

3 wins and 2 losses in the last 5 matches for Alexei says it all. He's not been able to maintain consistency. Last time out, he beat Gojo Borna (0-2) and before that he lost Gijs Brouwer (0-2). Will he maintain the status quo in this clash or does he have a trick up his sleeves. 

Alexie and Sebastian have met just once and Sebastian Ofner won that match 2-0.

Alexei Popyrin is a surprise pick to win this match but it's a worthy pick.

Back Alexei Popyrin to win this match at 1.69 odds on Bet365.
