Klara Zakopalova – Julia Goerges
Goerges seems it good shape and might just end up winning this match, but the odds on Zakopalova simply to win a set are impressive.
They have met 3 times before with Goerges winning 2 but Zakopalova won their most recent meeting and she claimed a set in their first 2 encounters.
Florian Mayer – David Nalbandian
Mayer won their most recent meeting in November last year, but Nalbandian still leads 2-1 and he’s won their only meeting indoors.
Nalbandian is one of the fiercest Davis Cup-players around and has a fantastic record, whether at home or away. That’s why where rooting for him.
Radek Stepanek – Andreas Seppi
The Czech Republic has been a formidable Davis Cup opponent in recent years thanks to Stepanek and Berdych. Not least the latter. You never quite know where you have Stepanek, but when it comes to Davis Cup-matches at home, he’s usually very focused, and he aldready leads Seppi by 3-0 in h2h.
Milos Raonic – Julien Benneteau
Benneteau beat Raonic back in November in their only previous meeting, but that was at home in France. Tonight it’ll be on Raonic’ turf, and I’m positive he’ll take his revenge.
With Tsonga being the other Frenchman, and Raonic not really having the greatest Canadian partner, the duel between Canada and France will probably be decided on how many matches Raonic wins. That’s why a win tonight is extremely important.
