ATP Shanghai Day 5 predictions
Yoshihito nishioka vs jaume munar
Tête-à-tête: 1-1 mukar musicage
Yoshihito Nishioka obtained the greatest victory in his season when he upset the former finalist Andrey Rublev after losing the first set. He played a big match when everything clicks for him. It was extremely difficult for the Japanese to win matches, but that should give him a lot of confidence. JAUME MUNAR continues to have a hard stellar terrace season as it demolishes Flavio Cobolli in the second round. This should be a fun match between these two, and I expect a tight match.
Prediction: Munar in 3
Tomas Machac vs Valentin Vacherot
Tête-à-tête: First meeting
There are not many players who can stay with Tomas Machac when he feels the ball, and Mattia Bellucci had no chance in the second round. The level of Machac was extremely high and it will try to maintain it for the rest of the tournament. Valentin Vacherot upset the Alexander Bublik format in a high quality match. The two players made a big fight, but Vacherot was more consistent and held his nerve well towards the end. It has been used for a high percentage and will need the same thing to challenge Machac.
Prediction: Machac in 3
Holger Rune vs Ugo Humbert
Tête-à-tête: Rune 4-0 Humbert
Holger Rune is off to a very good Sebastian Baez in the second round. Rune seemed to be composed from the start and played a solid match. Ugo Humbert finished his sequence of three defeats with a very necessary victory against Jordan Thompson in the second round. Humbert served well, which turned out to be the difference in the match. However, he won only one set in four meetings against Rune, which gives me little faith in his chances here.
Prediction: rune in 3
Taylor Fritz vs Giovanni Mpeshi Perricard
Tête-à-tête: Fritz 1-0 Perricard
Taylor Fritz survived a thriller against Fabian Marozsan in the second round and must be relieved that he is still in the tournament. He faces another difficult battle for Giovanni Mpeshi Perricard, who had an advance in two sets against the American American. However, this match was played in Wimbledon, which has faster shorts. The shorts play much more slowly this year at the Masters of Shanghai, giving Fritz enough time to put more bullets in return and put pressure.
Prediction: Fritz in 2
