Sock leads in head-to-head encounters against Albot with a score of 2-0. He will be favoured in the upcoming match. All the more so because Sock is showing very good tennis on the grass courts this season. His exits to the semi-finals in Nottingham, the final in Ilkley and the third round of Wimbledon stand out.
Both head-to-head encounters between the two players have been topsy-turvy. We believe that this matchup will follow a similar pattern. All the more so as they will be playing on grass, where a powerful serve decides a lot.
Radu Albot has had little success during the grass part of the season. Although it is worth noting that Radu managed to make it from qualification to the main draw at Wimbledon. However, in the main draw in the first round, he lost in three sets to David Goffin (2-6, 2-6, 6-7).
Albot showed more or less good results this season at tournaments in Phoenix and Mauthausen. He reached the quarterfinals in both of them.
In nine of his previous ten games, Albot had taken at least a set.
Sock seems to have managed to get back to his former level. At least, Jack is having a great grass season.
On grass this year, he reached the semi-finals at the Challenger in Nottingham. He then reached the final in Ilkley. Sock then qualified for the third round at Wimbledon, where he lost to Jason Kubler (2-6, 6-4, 7-5, 6-7, 3-6). Last year at Newport, Jack lost to Kevin Anderson (7-6, 2-6, 4-6) in the quarter-finals.
Sock has won ten of his last 12 matches as a favourite.
