Christopher Eubanks vs Thiago Monteiro – Match Predictions
Contents
Eubanks is having a great grass season and in the opening round he is facing a player who hasn’t played a single match on this surface this year.
Christopher Eubanks -3.5 games
Eubanks confidence is to the room after the American won his first ever ATP title last week. Two of the five matches in Mallorca, Eubanks won in the decisive tie break so he can definitely handle pressure. Monteiro on the other hand, has not played on grass prior to Wimbledon and that gives Eubanks huge advantage. The serve of the American is another reason why this match will go in his favor as he serves strong and he is a lefty. That will cause a lot of problems for Monteiro and Eubanks will win this one by covering the -3.5 games spread.
First set under 10.5 games
Monteiro is having a losing record this season and will make his debut on grass this year. He will lack stability at the start of the match and Eubanks will use that to make an early break and close the opening set with under 10.5 games.
