Friday's London match pits Rinky Hijikata against Ugo Humbert on grass. Ugo Humbert has won 5 of the last 10. Rinky Hijikata comes in at 5 wins from the last ten.
This is the first career meeting between the two, which means no head-to-head baggage on either side of the net.
Humbert's 73.1% behind the first serve (against 68.9% for Hijikata) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Hijikata comes in off a compressed schedule. The edge belongs to Humbert — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.
