Rafael Jodar is a short priced favourite here despite the match being played on an indoor hard court. If Alexander Bublik gets his serve going early, then there is no reason he can’t win in London.

This will be the first match between Rafael Jodar and Alexander Bublik.
Jodar Into the Top 20
Rafael Jodar has been the standout improver this year, winning the title in Marrakech and reaching the final in Washington to climb into the Top 20.
The Spaniard got to the semi-finals in Toronto but appeared to run out of stream in Cincinnati, going down to Flavio Cobolli in the fourth round.
Fatigue definitely affected the 20-year-old at the US Open where he suffered an inexplicable 6-2 6-1 6-1 first round defeat to Bu Yunchaokete.
Jodar bounced back at the Davis Cup last week, crushing Cristian Garin 6-0 6-2 in 65 minutes. The match was played on a clay court in Chile.
Bublik a Dangerous Opponent
Alexander Bublik won the Hong Kong Open in January to break into the Top 10. He has been consistent since without winning another title, losing the Kitzbuhel final to Quentin Halys.
The 29-year-old had a decent start at the US Open, beating JJ Wolf in 4 sets and destroying Adrian Mannarino 6-3 6-1 6-1. He ran into Tommy Paul in the third round, going down 6-4 3-6 6-7 6-1 6-3.
