Christopher O’Connell against Grigor Dimitrov prediction

Christopher O’Connell had to overcome Botic van de Zandschulp in qualifying at the weekend to make it to the main draw, but this 7-6 6: 4 victory will increase his confidence in this game in the first round.

In the first round he pulled Grigor Dimitrov with the sixth seed, so that the challenges for the Australian are only more difficult, but he hopes to push the legendary Bulgarian here.

The couple met three times ago and Dimitrov won all three times, with O’Connell only winning one of the eight sentences. This is not far before this game.

Dimitrov had to withdraw from the Australian Open due to injuries and he only returned in Doha last week. In the first round he was beaten by a Jiri Lehecka, beaten in the form of Jiri Lehecka, so that he has played very little tennis in the past few weeks.

He will imagine his chances to get a win under his belt here and build some momentum. The draw was friendly to the veteran and we expect Dimitrov win the victory and will be moved into the 16th round.
