Tennis Pick Preview Borna Coric vs Richard Gasquet
A very good tennis pick for today is Borna Coric vs Richard Gasquet. This will be played in ATP – SINGLES: Dubai (United Arab Emirates), hard.These two players met once in the Davis Cup two years back when Richard Gasquet secured a dominant win (6-2 7-6 6-1). Borna Coric is capable of putting in a fight and taking it to a deciding set, but the experienced Richard Gasquet will hold the edge in this first round clash.
Borna Coric Tennis Prediction
Borna Coric will play his first match since winning two Davis Cup singles rubbers against Vasek Pospisil and Denis Shapovalov earlier this month.
The Croatian has played just four matches on tour so far this season and his recent two matches ended in a defeat against John Millman (Australian Open) and Andrey Rublev (Doha).
The 21-year-old Next Gen star progressed to the quarterfinal in his first middle east tournament of the season (Doha) by defeating Pablo Carreno Busta and Nkoloz Basilashvili.
Making his Dubai debut in 2015 (as a qualifier), Borna Coric defeated the likes of Marcos Baghdatis and Andy Murray before losing to Roger Federer in the semifinal. However, he faced second-round exit in his recent appearance (2016).
Richard Gasquet Tennis Pick
Richard Gasquet has made an encouraging start to the season winning ten of his opening 14 matches, including a runner-up finish at ATP Montpellier earlier this month. This is a sizable improvement considering he struggled with his fitness during the second half of 2017.
After losing to Lucas Pouille in the final of ATP Montpellier, Richard Gasquet was forced to retire from his first-round match at ATP Rotterdam in the following week (vs. Pierre Hughes Herbert) and he is yet to play a match since then.
The talented Frenchman has made the semifinal twice and quarterfinal once in his five previous appearances at Dubai. However, he suffered a disappointing second-round exit from Doha earlier in the season, at the hands of another youngster (Stefanos Tsitsipas).
