Thompson vs Lopez Prediction

It was a momentous Tuesday for Feliciano Lopez who stepped on the courts in Mallorca with plenty of thoughts going in his mind. Lopez knew defeat to Max Purcell would send him into retirement for good, but the veteran rolled back the years one more time to secure just his third ATP win in the last 18 months. Being watched in the stands by fellow Spaniard Rafael Nadal, the 41-year-old ensured he will take happy memories in his last ATP tournament as a professional.

Lopez faces a formidable challenger in the round of 16, taking on a player he’s never beaten in three previous attempts. Jordan Thomspon has played some terrific tennis on grass this season, compiling a 9-3 record and finishing runner-up in Rosmalen. Lopez’s serve will have to be pinpoint and accurate and his net presence even stellar. But he knows the opponent across the net is proficient on grass and is in good form. It would take something out of the ordinary from Lopez to beat Thompson, which is why I think this might be a step too far.
