Emilio Nava vs Camilo Ugo Carabelli prediction
Emilio Nava qualified for the French Open after three wins in qualifying without dropping a set. This follows on from his fine run to the final in Oeiras on the Challenger Tour, where he lost to Laslo Djere. His best result on the ATP this season so far was a quarter-final appearance in Santiago.
He goes up against Camilo Ugo Carabelli. The Argentine just competed in Hamburg, losing at the quarter-final stage to Aleksandar Kovacevic. He defended his Challenger title in Rosario earlier this year, and the clay court specialist also reached the last four in Marrakesh last month. Ugo Carabelli has just one main draw win at Roland Garros, advancing to the second-round in 2022.
Ugo Carabelli has more tour-level experience, but Nava is on a strong run of form at the moment and should not be underestimated, especially in a best of five format. This will likely prove to be a thoroughly competitive and physically demanding first-round match.
Emilio Nava vs Camilo Ugo Carabelli tip: Over 3.5 sets
