Alexandre Muller vs Holger Rune prediction

Holger Rune has piqued the interest of the tennis world heading into his second round clash with Alexandre Muller in Washington.

The Dane is being mentored by the legendary Andre Agassi and there will be many an eye watching the third seed to see if the great American’s influence can kick-start the 22-year-old’s season - and career.

First up, it’s a tricky encounter for Rune as he faces a Frenchman having the best campaign of his career to-date.

Muller eased past Beibit Zhukayev 6-4 6-4 to set up a first tour-level clash with the Dane, although Rune did win a lower tier encounter 6-4 6-4 on clay four years ago.

World number 39 Muller has the consistency and forehand punch to unsettle Rune, but we think he will be revitalised by Agassi’s influence and that should nudge him over this hurdle.
