As these players go head to head for the first time in their respective careers, these are our predictions and tips for this match

J J Wolf to win @ 8/11 (1.73)

We would like to point out that the past few weeks have not been very pleasant for Jiri Lehecka; he has lost four matches in a row across singles and doubles, winning just one set in the process. Although J J Wolf has had his fair share of struggles, he has fared relatively better than today’s opponent. The American player reached the round of 16 of the Shanghai Masters a couple of weeks ago; he has four wins in his last six matches. Taking everything into account, we are leaning towards Wolf for the victory.

2 total sets @ 4/7 (1.57)

Next, let’s explore the ‘total sets’ market. It may interest you to know that these players have both been involved in a lot of two-setters in recent months.

For this reason, we are fairly confident that whoever wins this match will do so in straight sets.

Jeffrey John Wolf

J J Wolf’s Stockholm Open campaign ended in the second round at the hands of Laslo Djere; as he fell to the Serb in straight sets. The American player has had a fairly decent run of results lately, winning four of his last six matches. Wolf will be eyeing a second round spot, and he’ll fancy his chances against a struggling Jiri Lehecka.

Jiri Lehecka

On the other hand, things have not gone swimmingly for Jiri Lehecka; as he has lost three singles matches in a row. The Czech player crashed out in the first round of the Stockholm Open in straight sets last week; he’ll hope to get back to winning ways as he faces J J Wolf on Monday.

Wolf vs Lehecka head to head

This will be the first encounter between these players; which isn’t much of a surprise considering Jiri Lehecka played the ATP Next Gen Finals just last year, and hasn’t been on tour for very long.
