Milos Raonic vs Pierre-Hugues Herbert: Match Prediction

Milos Raonic

Milos Raonic enters the match as the certain favourite after his lethal opening round performance against Bedene. The Canadian served well and gave no chance to his opponent whatsoever. Herbert would be physically drained out after his 3 settle battle against Sandgren in Round 1 which could hamper his performance. Raonic is expected to continue his good performance on indoor hard courts this season and make it to the last 16.

Match Prediction: Milos Raonic to defeat Pierre-Hugues Herbert in straight sets.
