Ugo Humbert v Marco Cecchinato Head to Head
In their only previous match played in 2020 at Auckland Open, Humbert had registered a straight-set win to make it to the quarterfinal of that competition.

Humbert Coming off Monte Carlo Shock
While clay isn’t quite Humbert’s favourite surface, an opening round defeat at the hands of John Millman in that tournament would have come as a huge surprise. Even the bookmakers had pegged Humbert at a 1/2 favourite to win that one.
That being said, Humbert’s form has been quite dodgy this season even on hard court surfaces, despite having entered the season on the back of two title wins last year.
Other than a quarterfinal entry at the Montpellier Open and a semifinal in Marseille, Umbert’s results have been disappointing. Opening defeats at the Murray River Open and Rotterdam Open and a second round at the season’s opening Grand Slam in Melbourne have all made life difficult for the Frenchman.
And all of this has followed him into the start of the clay swing, something he would like to turn around soon.

Cecchinato Shrugs off Harris Challenge
Despite a struggle in form, Cecchinato lived up to his favourite billing in the first round of this tournament, defeating Lloyd Harris in his opener. He won 6-3, 6-4 to make it to second round, needing an hour and 18 minutes to get there.
The first set was bit of a blur as Ceccinato raced off to a 5-0 lead before Harris could even get going. A surprise break back from the South African in the seventh game didn’t scare Cecchinato away as he served out to love to clinch the opening set.
In the second, Harris did a lot better but still conceded a break of serve and this was one Cecchinato converted into a decisive one. He had a match-point on Harris’ serve in the eighth game of the set before serving it out in the next.
The victory would have come as bit of a continuing relief for Harris who has now made it to second round at four successive tournaments on clay.
Humbert v Cecchinato Prediction and Tip
Cecchinato is the bookmakers’ favourite to win this and given Humbert’s form and his results on clay we will back that result too.
Tip: Cecchinato to win: 4/6 (bet365)
