Sonego&#8217;s momentum can&#8217;t be ignored. <strong>Sonego in 3<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Dennis Novak vs Peter Gojowczyk<\/h3>\n<div class=\"getty embed image\" style=\"background-color: #fff; display: inline-block; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #a7a7a7; font-size: 11px; width: 100%; max-width: 594px;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; text-align: left;\"><a style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1231375926\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 0; padding: 64.47812% 0 0 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display: inline-block; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0;\" src=\"\/\/embed.gettyimages.com\/embed\/1231375926?et=_HVsX0C1TZ5HnQwGLBpwJQ&amp;tld=com&amp;sig=-dFwQcAnnI1r9Uqk6bLcImdRxM_zL2YV1Do0_eER2yY=&amp;caption=true&amp;ver=1\" width=\"594\" height=\"383\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Gojowczyk is showing some impressive form, having qualified and won four straight at this venue, prior to that he had a challenger semi, while Novak is 3-2 on the year.

Gerasimov is a player clearly on the upswing and perhaps an ATP title is in the cards here. <strong>Gerasimov in 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Roberto Bautista Agut vs Ugo Humbert<\/h3>\n<div class=\"getty embed image\" style=\"background-color: #fff; display: inline-block; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #a7a7a7; font-size: 11px; width: 100%; max-width: 594px;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; text-align: left;\"><a style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1231076107\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 0; padding: 66.66667% 0 0 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display: inline-block; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0;\" src=\"\/\/embed.gettyimages.com\/embed\/1231076107?et=0hT2dIDaROxgiG4pP_K3DA&amp;tld=com&amp;sig=xUuMiLrICXvVeUQMO8mMkXjSCFUZgha4OimzwmjgnEQ=&amp;caption=true&amp;ver=1\" width=\"594\" height=\"396\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Humbert&#8217;s form can&#8217;t be overlooked here, he finished the year strong at the Paris Masters, pushed Nick Kyrgios in the second round of the AO and is now playing well again at a home venue. Bautista Agut is the more accomplished player but it&#8217;s been a slow start to the season for the veteran Spaniard and home cooking can&#8217;t be overlooked.
