Holger Rune vs Nuno Borges prediction
Holger Rune will be eager to continue his solid start to the new season at a tournament he has enjoyed deep runs at recently.
The Dane reached the final in 2023 and was a quarter-finalist at the Monte Carlo Country Club last year.
The former world number four transitions to the clay on the back of a surge to the Indian Wells final, although he did lose a tight match to Reilly Opelka at the first time of asking in Miami.
Borges is aiming to build on his break-out year in 2024 but will be disappointed not to have gone deeper on the clay in Marrakesh last time out as he took only two of his 17 break chances in a 6-4 6-4 quarter-final loss to Roberto Carballes Baena.
The Portuguese will need to be far more clinical to upset Rune who has won their previous two meetings without dropping a set and looks very much at home on the MCC dirt.
