Alex Michelsen vs. Adrian Mannarino Prediction
Michelsen needed time to settle against lucky loser Mackenzie McDonald on Tuesday before taking control and recording a 6-4, 7-5 victory. That extended his winning streak to six matches after he captured the Bloomfield Hills Challenger title last weekend. Michelsen defeated Aidan Mayo, Lloyd Harris, Mark Lajal, Dhakshineswar Suresh and Jacob Fearnley during that run, closing the tournament with a 7-6(4), 6-3 victory over Fearnley.
Mannarino advanced with a composed 7-5, 6-4 victory over Tien, absorbing the younger American’s pace and forcing him to play through uncomfortable, low exchanges. The 38-year-old has remained dangerous in 2026, reaching the Montpellier final and defeating defending champion Gabriel Diallo at the Libema Open. His flat left-handed groundstrokes, early timing and ability to redirect pace can make first sets particularly difficult for opponents expecting an immediate physical advantage.
Mannarino defeated Michelsen 6-2, 6-4 in the 2023 Newport final, but that result came when Michelsen was an 18-year-old playing for his first ATP title. Michelsen has since developed into a much stronger server, returner and baseline defender and won both of the head to head battles since. His improved physicality should allow him to attack Mannarino’s second serve while maintaining enough patience to avoid the rushed mistakes that damaged Tien’s chances.

Mannarino has repeatedly remained competitive early against younger stars before fading once longer rallies and accumulated court coverage begin testing his legs. Michelsen enters fully warmed up after six matches in nine days and should be prepared for the veteran’s unusual rhythm. The -350 moneyline offers little value, but the straight-sets market provides a playable route on the younger American’s superior serve, speed and sustained form.
