Jannik Sinner vs Mariano Navone prediction
Jannik Sinner will make his comeback to the sport at his home tournament. The world number one has missed the last three months of the season after being suspended for a doping offence, having tested positive for a banned substance last year. He started the season by defending his title at the Australian Open and has not played since. He is still unbeaten in 21 matches and has not lost since the final of the China Open to Carlos Alcaraz in early October.
He will take on Mariano Navone in the second-round. Navone converted all four of his break points as he defeated Federico Cina 6-3 6-3 in the first-round of the event.
Though Sinner may be struggling for match fitness, having been out of the game for three months, he will be desperate to make a deep run at his home event, and we think he will begin his comeback with a straight sets victory.
