Prediction

This match is tough to predict as the two teams have shown their capabilities in certain moments. Both teams still have a chance to go through. However, a win will not be enough as they would still have to look at the result between Arevalo/Roger and Salisbury/Ram later on.

Prediction: Harri Heliovaara and Lloyd Glasspool to win in three sets.
