Fucso plays but...

He’s often injured!

Not at his best with his arm in his last match against Félix, he couldn’t push the Canadian into rallies, which is usually his big strength. He’s one of those players who can play like steel but who’s getting injured more and more often. Really the kind of situation you don’t like as a bettor...

Especially since on the other side, Nakashima is only just starting his grass season, but he has real credentials on the surface. I don’t know why he’s starting so late this year. If it was to do a physical training block, great; if it was to treat an injury, that’s a different story.

Being so in the dark here, I’m not going to go on about it forever. Nakashima should be a solid favourite here, but if Fuxo has taken care of his niggles, he could take the American to a deciding set in my opinion.
