Hubert Hurkacz vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina prediction

Hurkacz will enter the match as the firm favorite to win given his recent performances. However, the Spaniard should not be written off as he can be dangerous on his day. Hurkacz has won five out of six matches on grass this season, including the Halle Open. Davidovich Fokina, on the other hand, has won two out of four matches on the surface this season. Hurkacz's serve is his key weapon and he has served 70 aces in six grasscourt matches this year. The Pole will look to make the most out of it at Wimbledon as well. However, his serve will be tested as Davidovich Fokina is a decent returner. Hurkacz's powerful groundstrokes and court coverage will also come in handy against the Spaniard. Davidovich Fokina's agility and athleticism will be needed when the Pole is on the attack. The Spaniard is a good hitter and will also look to slow down a point using his fine drop shots. Davidovich Fokina is capable of putting up a good fight but Hurkacz should be able to get the better of him and make it to the second round of Wimbledon. Pick: Hurkacz to win in straight sets.
