Ben Shelton takes on Cameron Norrie in the Cincinnati Masters round of 16 on Thursday. Who will progress to the quarterfinals? Here's our prediction.
Command Analysis
Ben Shelton
USABen Shelton got a wild card in Cincinnati. He has looked great so far and managed to get into the last 16. After defeating Lorenzo Sonego (7-6, 3-6, 7-5), he ousted the world №5 Casper Ruud (6-3, 6-3). This season, Shelton recorded 10 wins and three losses on hard courts. Before the start of the Cincinnati Masters, he secured a runner-up finish at the Challenger in Chicago.
Cameron Norrie
Great BritainCameron Norrie had two long fights in Cincinnati. First, he needed three sets to defeat Holger Rune (7-6, 4-6, 6-4). In the second round, Norrie had a tough battle against his compatriot Andy Murray (3-6, 6-3, 6-4). Two weeks ago, the Briton was the runner-up in Los Cabos, and last week, he played in the last 16 in Montreal.

Tip and bets
Norrie looks tired. After more or less successful performances in Los Cabos and Montreal, the Briton is starting to run out of strength. His victories over Rune and Murray did not convince us at all. Young Shelton may well upset another favorite.

Shelton defeated Sonego and Ruud, demonstrating that he is in excellent shape. We think he will create problems for Norrie and suggest taking the over here.
