David Goffin v Feliciano Lopez Head to Head
Goffin leads 3-1, last beating Lopez back in 2018 in ATP Rotterdam. Their last meeting took place that year in the Queen’s Club tournament where Lopez won in three sets.

Goffin on a Resurgent Path
World No. 85 David Goffin has got plenty of tennis left in him, as evidenced by his decent start to the year.
He is now 9-6, courtesy of his title run in the Ottignies-Louvain-La-Neuve Challenger event in his native country. The 32-year-old, however, has since not made it past the early stages in any of the subsequent tournaments.
Most recently, he featured in the Monte-Carlo Masters where he lost to Diego Schwartzman 4-6, 2-6. Goffin can’t really be faulted for that, seeing that clay is not really his preferred comfort zone.
Of his 15 ATP career finals, only three have come on the red surface. His last title is one such instance – the Grand Prix Hassan II in Morocco last season.

Lopez still Going Strong
At 41 years old, Feliciano Lopez is among the oldest active players on the ATP Tour. It is commendable that he is still keeping at it, despite the lack of results.
Perseverance is a fine trait and the Spaniard is doing a stellar job of serving as its beacon.
Of course, Lopez has not been as active as the others on the circuit; so far in 2023, he has featured only in two tournaments. In Acapulco 500, he reached round two after beating Christopher Eubanks. Next, he played in a Challenger event in Murcia where he was dispatched by Italy’s Matteo Arnaldi in straight sets.
Lopez closed last season with a rather disappointing record of 1-15.
Overall, Feliciano’s highlights include the French Open doubles in 2016 and two ATP 1000 doubles finals from Rome and Monte Carlo.
Goffin v Lopez Prediction and Tip
Goffin has got a good chance here to bag a win and build some rhythm. That said, Lopez is experienced and can very well cause all sorts of problems for his Belgian adversary. David is the odds-on favourite but his chances of losing are not as low as some may think to be.
