Prediction and Conclusion

Nicolas Jarry found his spot in the top 20 players earlier this year, but he is currently on a seven-match losing streak, and his last win came exactly four months ago. There were no reports that he is struggling with some kind of injury, which means that he has not been in good form in a while. Lucas Klein has a better record for the season, but it is a fact that he has been playing in lower-level tournaments. The Slovak will definitely be competitive in this match, but the time has come for Jarry to bounce back, and we go with the Chilean to win this one.
