Yoshihito Nishioka vs J.J. Wolf – Match Predictions
Contents
Yoshihito Nishioka to Win
Nishioka is much more mature than Wolf and that will be the key point in this match. The American has a good serve but he lacks consistency and that will not give him a chance in this match. Nishioka is a lefty which will make things even more difficult for Wolf. The Japanese also move better and will win the mental aspect of the game which will put him through to the next round.
Over 36.5 Games
This will not be a match in which any player would dominate and lead all the way from the beginning. Both Nishioka and Wolf do not prefer playing on clay and will have many ups and downs which will lead to both of them winning a set and eventually a match with more than 36.5 games.
