Ricardas Berankis - Lajovic Dusan

We have first matches in Serbia, where native player Dusan Lajovic will meet Lithuanian player, but no need to think that R. Berankis is underdog here because Dusan players at home and is more experienced on clay. Richard Berankis played a lot in Serbia and trained there in Tipsarevic academy so he knows courts and all other things.

My choice is against Dusan as he now demonstrates one of worst tennis in career as he lost all clay matches. The one of the matches was against Millman, who is for sure not better than Berankis this year and thats makes me think that Lithuanian have a lot of changes.

Richard played nice matches this year and on clay he for sure improved a lot and in general now play decent tennis which i think will help.

I think that we will catch Dusan offguarded in this match and not ready for R. B.
