The round of 64 of the 2019 Wimbledon Championships Men’s Singles starts on Wednesday. After eliminating the sixth-seed Alexander Zverev in the opening round, Jiri Vesely will play Pablo Cuevas which seems like an excellent opportunity for the 25-year old Czech to proceed further.

Cuevas had 12 winners (59-47) and ten unforced errors (58-48) more than Dzumhur who obviously had a problem with his left shoulder. Pablo hit 11 aces and made a whopping 11 double faults.
Jiri Vesely News & Form
Jiri Vesely had to win three qualifying rounds to reach the main draw at Wimbledon, but it was good preparation for the first-round clash with the World No. 5 Alexander Zverev.

Cuevas vs Vesely Betting Tip & Prediction
Pablo Cuevas is a great fighter, and I really like his game on a clay court, but on the grass court, Jiri Vesely shouldn’t have any problem to beat him. A surprising victory over Zverev could be a huge boost for Vesely, but players often suffer a hangover following big wins.

However, Jiri was playing very well in the qualifying rounds, so I’m backing him to win this match and suggesting you to take Vesely in four or fewer sets at 13/20 with 888Sport.
