Daniil Medvedev vs Jiri Lehecka – Match Predictions

Daniil Medvedev has not made major success on grass courts other than the 2019 title in Mallorca. However, he is the favorite in the match against Lehecka, who has a total of five wins on grass in his career.

Daniil Medvedev -5.5

Medvedev is determined to make a significant success at Wimbledon for the first time in his career. He can be pretty happy with the draw as he will play Jiri Lehecka for the first time in his career. Medvedev showed that he was confident last week at Wimbledon and could have control of the match. Lehecka has a nice run, but it will all end up on Monday. He will not be able to hold on with the world No. 3, and Medvedev will win this one, covering the -5.5 games spread.

Daniil Medvedev 3-0

Medvedev lost the first set in the previous match against Marton Fucsovics and will not allow anything like that to happen in the round of 16 match against Lehecka. Medvedev is simply on another level compared to the 21-year-old and will have another dominant performance moving forward with a straight set victory.
