Match 1: David GOFFIN vs. Kyle EDMUND

Edmund can make this Davis Cup final much more straight forward for the UK if he wins either of his singles matches.  I think Edmund has a chance, but Goffin on indoor clay in front of a partisan crowd is too much to pick against.

My Prediction: Goffin d. Edmund 6-3, 6-4, 6-2

Match 2: Andy MURRAY vs. Ruben BEMELMANS

Andy Murray has very little margin for error.  Baring the unexpected he will need to be part of all three points his invading team wins.  The world #2 should win this match, but we all know strange things can happen in Davis Cup matches.

My Prediction: Murray d. Bemelmans 6-4, 6-1, 6-2

This will leave things tied at 1-1 heading into the pivotal doubles clash.
