C. Lestienne - R. Gasquet

Auckland ATP Semi-Finals

Two Frenchmen that I really didn't expect at this stage. Gasquet started the season against Giron, where he lost to him due to poor physical confidence, but he looks very solid in this tournament and celebrated his victory against serious tennis players and won minus points. Lestienne looks good in this tournament, but the last two matches have been very difficult, and now Lestienne is facing the most serious opponent in this tournament. Gasquet is again in good form, like last season, and in terms of skill, he is significantly superior to his compatriot, and in 2018 he already beat Lestienne 6-4 6-2, maybe the result will not be identical, but Gasquet is the favorite and must win here with a 3-game advantage
