Aleksandar Vukic to Win a Set

It’s important to point out that Aleksandar Vukic played in the Atlanta Open final a couple of days ago, and was just a set away from winning the title. On the other hand, Brandon Nakashima crashed out in the second round of the Atlanta Open at the hands of Chris Eubanks. It’s worth mentioning that Nakashima surrendered at least one set in eight of his last nine singles matches; and considering he lost to Aleksandar Vukic a couple of months ago, we are fairly confident that the Australian player will not go down in straight sets.

As a matter of fact, these players clashed two months ago, and they ended up playing three tiebreaks in the same match. On that note, we are taking the over 22.5 games option.
