Jaume Munar vs Jaime Faria prediction

Jaume Munar scored a first ever win over Taylor Fritz to reach the round of 16 in Tokyo.

The Spanish qualifier upset last year’s finalist and third seed 6-7 6-4 6-3 to set up a clash with lucky loser Jaime Faria.

The Portuguese hopeful edged out Great Britain’s Arthur Fery by a 6-4 3-6 6-4 scoreline.

This will be their third meeting with honours even at one win apiece. Munar prevailed in four sets on hard at this year’s US Open while Faria triumphed in a deciding set in Rio in2025.

Both players are at this stage with house money and given their past battles, it’s worth backing this to go the distance.
