Van Assche vs Droguet Prediction 3 August 2026
🎾 Luca Van Assche arrives at the Montreal Masters looking to extend an impressive winning run - one that recently brought him his first ATP title. In the first round of the Canadian 1000-event, he meets compatriot Titouan Droguet, who came through qualifying. The question is whether a player ranked outside the top 100 can use his recent form on North American courts to push the newly-minted world No. 48.
Head-to-Head
📊 In head-to-head meetings, Luca Van Assche holds the edge - two wins from three against Tituán Droguet. Droguet took the last one, but the overall record still favours Van Assche.
