My Prediction
Dimitrov in 4 sets.Ladies and gentlemen, let's spar for the match between Grigor Dimitrov and Corentin Moutet. Just in case you haven't noticed, Grigor Dimitrov, our 19th seed, has got the bookies jumping through hoops. I mean, he's had some ups and downs, losing a couple of matches to Passaro F. and Diallo G., but let's not forget that stunning victory over Nishioka Y. and that hard-fought battle against Quinn E. All this hints at a rather iron-clad will, wouldn't you agree?
Now let's go across the court to Corentin Moutet, who's not graced with a tournament seed this time around. Strap yourselves in - this man has been running a marathon versus a sprint, notching up wins left, right and center. Sure, a blip against Griekspoor T. but bulldozing over other opponents like Tien L., Altmaier D. and Michelsen A. This lad is not there just to make up the numbers, he's managed to grind where others have shrunk!
While Moutet is taking more than his share of love in his games, Dimitrov seems to have a specialty of just eking out the wins. Cue nail-biter indeed!
All said and done, we've got a man who defied playoff struggles opposite a non-seeded firecracker exploding in the regular seasons. Makes for an interesting wager, right?
Well, for all those number crunchers out there, here's Albert's Prediction: Dimitrov in 4 sets.
