Even though I don't usually bet on matches involving Simon, I will take this one with a higher stake. It is well known that the Frenchman is prone to complications and rarely handles any match routinely, and a lot of things are working against him here. First of all, this is his first match after an extremely hard Australian tour where he was on the crutches at certain points. We will not take that into consideration for this bet, but the adaptation of his more experienced compatriot. Gicquel has had three qualification matches in which he has lost his serve only once, just like in the huge win against Llodra in the first round. He finally beat the player that had beaten him in previous four encounters and he showed his good form. The reason for this tip are the head-to-heads and four indoor wins for Gicquel, even though it is worth mentioning they are from a distant past. However, they do suggest that he is not afraid of his opponent today and armed with this confidence, I see him as a completely equal opponent.
