Yesterday's victory by Alejandro Davidovich Fokina over Shelton was unexpected. Although the American made many mistakes, the Spaniard still managed to defeat him in the match. This may give Fokina added confidence and help him in the game against Talon Griekspoor. However, Griekspoor is showing progress and improving his game with each match. He successfully defeated Eubanks, despite losing the first set, and demonstrated good play. Additionally, Griekspoor has experience playing against strong hard-hitters and is capable of challenging them. Thus, Griekspoor has the advantage over Fokina in terms of experience and the strength of his game. He may be more prepared for this match and have a greater chance of winning. However, Fokina may perform with increased confidence after his victory over Shelton and might create some difficulties for Griekspoor with his playing style. In conclusion, the prediction for this match will be ambiguous. Griekspoor is likely to be the favorite, but Fokina could put up a fight and create some uncertainty in the outcome of the match.
Fokina served in such a way that he managed to outplay his strong opponent, Shelton. In comparison, Grikspur depends too much on the situation and if he doesn't start the game right away, he starts to get nervous and make mistakes. Both players have overcome tough opponents and their impressive debut performances leave an impression. Fokina even sent former 15th-ranked player Ben Shelton on vacation. The more experienced and confident Grikspur managed to defeat Christopher Eubanks after a tough first set (6-7, 6-3, 6-4). It is difficult to determine the favorite in this match, but both have everything necessary for successful indoor play. Grikspur has a slight advantage in terms of form, but recently he has been playing many long matches. Eight out of ten of his previous matches ended with a total of more than 22.5 games. A serious and tough battle is expected from both players. However, I believe in Fokina as he has shown his readiness, and I don't think Grikspur can surprise him. Overall, Fokina seems more confident and prepared for this match.
