Sergiy Stakhovsky and Kamil Capkovic will meet on Monday in the first round of the Bratislava ChallengerYou can watch and bet on the ATP Bratislava Challenger live for free at bet365 > live tennisSergiy Stakhovsky is the second seed in this week’s Bratislava Challenger and he appears to be in with a chance of winning the title. His recent form hasn’t been all that impressive, but at Challenger level he should be able to string together some victories.
Stakhovsky’s first opponent will be Kamil Capkovic of Slovakia. As the world No. 261, Capkovic isn’t expected to put up much of a challenge, and it would be a surprise to see him cause Stakhovsky much trouble. Form isn’t necessarily an issue for Capkovic though. He won a Futures event in Nigeria last month.
Stakhovsky, a four-time ATP title winner, shouldn’t struggle on Monday. He hasn’t been at his best in recent weeks, but it will require a terrific performance from Capkovic to upset the odds here. Stakhovsky should be able to get back to winning ways here, which should help him to kick start his bid to win this event.
