Corentin Moutet vs Holger Rune prediction
Corentin Moutet made it through to the third-round in Rome after his opponent Ugo Humbert was forced to retire in their second-round match due to an ongoing hand injury. Moutet was leading 6-3 4-0 in the match.
He now takes on Holger Rune who came from a set down to defeat Francisco Comesana 3-6 6-3 6-4. The Dane was not at his best but played the pressure points extremely well as he saved 18 out of a possible 20 break point opportunities. He seemed to be moving freely in his first match back since withdrawing from the Madrid Open due to a knee injury.
The head-to-head is currently at 1-1 and this match will be the first between the pair on clay. Rune won their most recent encounter in the second-round of Indian Wells earlier this year in straight sets.
Moutet will be well-rested in comparison to Rune, whose match with Comesana lasted three hours. Nevertheless, the Dane seems to be fully fit again and has already played some inspired clay court tennis over the last month, which included a title in Barcelona. We’re backing him to advance in straight sets.
