It&#8217;s unlikely he can maintain the same level he displayed last week and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2020\/09\/01\/maxime-cressy-the-craziest-player-youve-never-heard-of\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Cressy<\/a> will be surely very motivated in what was a very happy hunting ground for him last year, reaching the final and only losing to Rafael Nadal, before going on a run at the Australian Open as well.<br \/>\n<strong>Prediction:<\/strong> Cressy in 2<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"KY3Ro36DSTx9p4FmGCspKw\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1244405066\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'KY3Ro36DSTx9p4FmGCspKw',sig:'KF3ee2xIwNJ0JYInLZR41IfFdOggbytLpWn7yboMnjE=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1244405066',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Soonwoo Kwon vs Tomas Machac<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Head-to-head:<\/strong> Machac 2-1 Kwon<\/p>\n<p>In a very bizarre twist of events, these two will be facing for the second time in a 30-hour span. Machac won in 3 sets in the last round of qualifying but Kwon entered the draw as a lucky loser and will have his chance for revenge here. Given that the two players are at a similar level, it&#8217;s unlikely that we will have the same winner two days in a row, so Kwon should have the edge here. When two players of similar caliber face each other twice in a short time span, wins tend to be split, as we&#8217;ve seen many times at the ATP Finals for instance.<br \/>\n<strong>Prediction:<\/strong> Kwon in 3<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"Pc3zGHW9QtNE1XSG5V1UEA\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1431277244\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'Pc3zGHW9QtNE1XSG5V1UEA',sig:'JTHDy7Xn3RLbPWKVYtujkYVlnaHBiKVGjQz7mwlhzNA=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1431277244',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Albert Ramos Vinolas vs John Millman<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Head-to-head:<\/strong> Ramos 1-1 Millman<\/p>\n<p>Millman has had a tough time in recent years and will be looking to get back on track here against an opponent who&#8217;s peaking in his 30s.
