Who will win Budkov Kjaer vs Blanchet?

Nicolai Budkov Kjaer. Agatha gives Budkov Kjaer a 54% chance to win and predicts a 2-0 win in sets. It is Agatha's prediction for this match, sealed and graded like every pick.

Why Agatha picks Budkov Kjaer

The deciding fact is that Ugo Blanchet has lost two matches in a row, the latest at the US Open. Nicolai Budkov Kjaer beat Hugo Gaston 6-2, 3-6, 6-4 in the first qualifying round of the Cincinnati Open on Aug 11, and Maks Kasnikowski 7-6, 4-6, 6-4 in the first qualifying round of the US Open on Aug 25. Over their last ten matches, Kjaer went 4-6 and Blanchet went 3-7. Agatha picks Kjaer to win, a little better than a coin flip, and predicts straight sets. The risk is Kjaer's recent loss to Christopher O'Connell, 7-5, 6-4 in the second qualifying round of the US Open on Aug 26.
