Alexei Popyrin to Win
Both Popyrin and Rinderknech arrive on the back of tournament wins. It leaves little imagination to separate them on the basis of form or momentum.

2-1 to Alexei Popyrin
Popyrin’s wins over Warrinka and Arnaldi in Umag’s final championship matches were three-set affairs. Interstingly, Rinderknech has also showcased his tendency to stay in the match with three of his last four wins coming with a 2-1 scoreline. The French ace will make it difficult for Popyrin but after overcoming Wawrinka in Umag, he should have enough to respond in kind and triumph with a 2-1 scorecard.
