Emil Ruusuvouri vs Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard prediction

Emil Ruusuvouri mainly competes on the Challenger Tour at this point of his career, with his best results this season being two quarter-finals. He took a break from the sport at the end of last year to prioritise his mental health and did not feature from May to August of this year. He was ranked 37 in the world just over two years ago but is now outside the top 600.

He goes up against Giovanni Mpetshi Perircard in the first-round of the European Open. The Frenchman has struggled all year in terms of producing consistent results, though he did have a breakthrough of sorts in Shanghai last time out as he got through to the round-of-16. This included his best win of the season as he defeated world number four Taylor Fritz. 

The Frenchman’s huge serve will win him a lot of free points indoors and he will be expected to come through this one.
