Medvedev vs Bagnis Prediction
Between this two, Bagnis has a better track record in the clay court compared to Medvedev. The 98th ranked player in the world uses strength to find the gap to send the ball in the opposite direction. However, in front of the Russian, he hasn’t that much chance to make history. Daniil is a hard court specialist but he has a history here, in Roland Garros, too. He’ll try to brush away any chance of an accident as he desires to thrive and achieve glory.
Both two of them are entertainers and both of them deserve to go to the next round but the irony is, that only one can make the way. Therefore, our prediction is, that Daniil Medvedev will win the match.
Our Pick: Daniil Medvedev to win straight sets.
