Simon has won all 5 of their previous matches. Their most recent meeting was in October 2014 in Shanghai. He won in 3 sets on a hard court. Garcia Lopez has taken a set in both their hard court matches. They have never played indoors.
Garcia Lopez has already played a match this week. He won in 3 sets against Dzumhur.
Simon often starts slowly and as he will be adjusting to the conditions I expect that to happen today. I think it is worth a part stake lay at the start and lay the rest of your stake if Simon breaks first. I expect him to come through a tight match.
Simon starts around 1.45.
