Fognini To Win At Cabo

Fognini F. - Granollers M

On paper, the number 9 in the world versus the number 103 should be an easy choice but only the top three players are reliable these days and it's a toss-up when it comes to the rest of the top 150 players.

Granollers leads the H2H between the two players at 4-3 but they haven't played each other since 2016 and Granollers has dropped off the pace while Fognini has picked it up a little.

For this match, i used data from tennisprediction and filtered for hard court tournaments within the past year, from the first round to the quarter-finals. Here are the results:

Fognini is capable of brilliant tennis but also baffling displays of stupidity where he throws it away against a lousier player. Against Granollers, he starts off as the favorite, and rightly so. Then again, he has frustrated me many times in the past that i affectionately call him, 'Fix-nini'.

Pick: Fognini @ 1.715
