Casper Ruud vs Aleksandar Vukic prediction
Casper Ruud produced one of his best hardcourt performances of the year with a dominant win over Matteo Berrettini.
The fourth seed pulled clear of the undercooked Italian to triumph 7-6 6-2.
The Norwegian will now meet qualifier Aleksandar Vukic who is showing some of his best tennis at this event with a commanding 6-4 6-2 success over Daniel Altmaier a case in point last time out.
Interestingly, the Aussie leads the match-up 1-0 having beaten Ruud 6-4 6-4 in Shanghai last year.
The world number 95 has endured a patchy 2025 but when he’s firing he can out-hit many on tour and that will be a threat to Ruud if he doesn’t find the depth and height off the spin that serves him so well on clay.
The Scandinavian is looking sharp here but if he doesn’t hit top gear, you can expect Vukic to cause a problem.
Casper Ruud vs Aleksandar Vukic tip: Over 2.5 sets
