It will be difficult to break this Terminator Mentzikas here. I wouldn't overestimate the matches against those 2 Peruvians against Lajovic and Kukushin, as it was a formality there, and I also don't trust him with such a performance at the next-gen tournament. I think the Frenchman should handle it today and under these conditions he is a better player.
Giovani seems to have reached his peak, surpassing everyone including Tiafoe, Kyrgios, and even our Next Gen player who didn't perform well and we don't know if he'll be able to step up like our Giovanis. Giovani has a serve that works and works in crucial moments, whereas our Mensikas makes a lot of unforced errors. From what I've seen of the Next Gen, they struggle with pressure. I hope Giovani will put pressure on Mensikas and beat him, even if it takes two or three sets. Good luck to everyone.
Although Jarry is primarily a clay court player, he has a very strong first serve and a powerful forehand which could cause trouble for Lehecka today. I believe this could be a closely contested match with a high chance of a tiebreak. I don't think this will be an easy win for either Chile or Peru. I will bet on him.
Even though Australia plays at home, I don't think he has much chance of winning against Peru. Last year's champion Dimitrov has to defend points, and he looked quite good in the early rounds. It's also worth mentioning that last year Grigor easily won 6:3 7:5 in this same tournament. I'm going with the Bulgarian.
