Gael Monfils vs Alexis Galarneau prediction
Gael Monfils will have high hopes that his Indian Wells farewell will extend beyond the first round.
The French wildcard, who retires this year, picked up his first win of the season in Acapulco and will have strong belief of adding a second in his maiden meeting with Alexis Galarneau.
The Canadian has been flying at Challenger level but has very limited main draw experience at 27 and sits at 219 in the world.
La Monf may not be the player he once was, but he should have the quality and motivation to be too good for the underdog here.
