They have played just once before. That was in April this year in the semi final of a Challenger on clay. Donaldson won in straight sets.
Donaldson reached the second round in Newport last year. Young has a poor record there. He last played there in 2014 and 2012 and was a little unlucky with his draws. He lost to Groth in 2014 and Russel in 2012. he has never been past the second round.
This may not be as straight forward as the market thinks. There won’t be a lot of breaks of serve and whilst Donaldson has less experience on grass I think he will give a good account of himself. We could see 3 sets.
Lay Young below 1.30 if we see that price early.
