Marin Cilic will be eyeing a 7th consecutive win on the grass when he meets Fabio Fognini in the Round of 16 of the 2021 Queen’s Club Championship.
After a poor season on clay, Cilic began his grass swing in style by winning the title in Stuttgart. The Croat hasn’t dropped a single set in Stuttgart although he faced some decent opponents in the shape of Shapovalov and Auger-Aliassime. He kicked off his ATP Queen’s Club campaign with a 2-1 victory over Sebastian Ofner, but he needed a tie-breaker in the decisive set in order to clinch the match. Cilic has won the title here in London back in 2018 following a great win in the final over Novak Djokovic. However, he lost against Diego Schwartzman in the second round last year.
Fognini, on the other hand, was knocked out in the third round of the French Open 2021 by Federico Delbonis a fortnight ago, but started his grass wing with a 2-0 win over Lu Y.H. The Italian had played two matches on grass in Antalya at the beginning of the year but he lost in the 2nd round at the hands of Chardy. Fognini has only competed in Wimbledon and played exhibition matches on grass over the past few years, so it will be interesting to see if he can challenge Cilic here.
Cilic is the better player here and a 2-0 victory for him at the price of 8/11 with Bet365 looks tasty.
