The Kazakh has one of the best touches on the Tour and can be quite a handful with his combination of drop shots and volleys. However, it is his tendency to go for the spectacular that can prove to be his bane.Fritz, meanwhile, is as solid a player as a top-10 player should be. His serve and forehand are among the best in the business, and he should be able to win a lot of points on Thursday with the help of those shots. Bublik might find it really difficult to deal with the 28-year-old American's groundstrokes from the baseline. Fritz should be able to win after a fight.Pick: Fritz to win in three setsTaylor Fritz vs Alexander Bublik betting tipsTip 1 - Result - Fritz to win in three setsTip 2 - Each player to win a setTip 3 - Match to have at least 20 games
