Preliminary review and pre-match prediction for Jack Draper vs Karen Khachanov
Jack Draper:
Draper defeated Kwon Soon-woo in the first match (6-2, 6-1).
If anything, Kwon easily defeated Dominic Thiem (6-4, 6-1) in qualifying, giving up only five games to the former world #3.
Draper, unlike Thiem, had no problems at all in his match against Kwon. Jack won 89% of points on the first ball and 76% on the second.
Except for the accuracy of the first serve was so-so – only 51%. In matches against stronger opponents, this could be a problem.
Draper is ranked 42nd in the current version of the rankings, but it is suspected that he will soon be near the top 20.
Draper has lost its last three meetings against the top 20.
Karen Khachanov:
Khachanov had no problems in his first match of the new season either. Karen started in Adelaide with a victory over Pedro Cachin (6-2, 6-4).
However, in this case, nothing else was expected. His opponent is an extremely rare player on the hard court, so the result was not surprising at all.
True, Khachanov still allowed Cachin to make one break, but it did not become a problem due to his class play on reception. Karen took four games under Cachin’s serve.
Khachanov reached the final in Adelaide last year. So, now he has two goals at once – to fight for the title and to defend the points.
Khachanov has won four of his last five encounters against left-handed players.
