Wimbledon Day 2 Men’s Predictions<\/h2>\n

Matteo Berrettini vs Lorenzo Sonego<\/h4>\n

Shane:<\/em>
\nWe have a very intriguing Round 1 matchup when Italian counterparts Matteo Berrettini and Lorenzo Sonego square off. Berrettini holds the 3-1 head-to-head advantage, but Sonego\u2019s one win came on the Stuttgart grass less than a month ago. Berrettini has been dealing with injuries this season and has just four Tour-level wins. Despite being a finalist at this event two years ago, I cannot trust his current form.
\nPrediction: Sonego in 4<\/em><\/p>\n

Jakub:<\/em>
\nTwo dangerous Italian floaters here (depending on Berrettini\u2019s fitness). Sonego should have enough to take advantage of Berrettini\u2019s rust here.
\nPrediction: Sonego in 4<\/em><\/p>\n

Damian:<\/em>
\nBerrettini was far from ready when he played in Queen\u2019s and got smashed off the court by… Sonego. He won\u2019t be a factor in this event either, but maybe can win a round if he\u2019s healthy? Let\u2019s hope he at least gives the fans a better show, but I can\u2019t go against Sonego.
\nPrediction: Sonego in 4<\/em><\/p>\n

Christopher Eubanks vs Thiago Monteiro<\/h4>\n

Shane:<\/em>
\nChristopher Eubanks raised his first ATP title over the weekend in Mallorca. Eubanks is 12-3 on the grass this season and is playing with great confidence. This will be Thiago Monteiro\u2019s first grass-court match of the season. He will be unable to keep up with Eubanks\u2019 serve and overall game.
\nPrediction: Eubanks in 3<\/em><\/p>\n

Jakub:<\/em>
\nEubanks is coming off of a title while Monteiro lost early at a clay Challenger last week. The American has expressed he\u2019s not fully comfortable moving on grass still but he should be taking care of business here.
\nPrediction: Eubanks in 3<\/em><\/p>\n

Damian:<\/em>
\nEubanks won his maiden ATP Tour title in Mallorca. He\u2019s one of the big-hitters whose serves are amazing on grass, but ground games actually like a slightly higher bounce. Nevertheless, he should be fine here against Monteiro, who\u2019s no grass-courter and is struggling right now anyway.
\nPrediction: Eubanks in 3<\/em><\/p>\n
