ATP Cologne Indoors Day Two Predictions<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Kyle Edmund vs Lloyd Harris<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Head-to-head: <\/strong>Edmund 2-0 Harris<\/p>\n

Did you know both Kyle Edmund and Lloyd Harris were born in South Africa? Edmund\u2019s allegiance may be to Great Britain, but the Yorkshireman was born in Johannesburg. He has had the better professional career so far, having played 172 more matches at Tour-level than Harris, although both are hovering around the 50% winning rate and Harris has made impressive strides in adapting to tennis at the highest-level.<\/p>\n

Both have enjoyed some impressive runs in 2020, with Harris reaching the final in Adelaide as a qualifier, whilst Edmund won the New York Open. Speaking of qualifying, Harris already has two matches under his belt at the ATP Cologne Indoors, having beaten Peter Gojowczyk and Marcos Giron to reach the main draw. That could give him a decisive advantage over Edmund, who has not played competitively in almost a month.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Harris in 2
