Mariano Navone vs Matteo Berrettini prediction
Matteo Berrettini will be targeting just a third career win at the Monte Carlo Masters when he takes on Argentine Mariano Navone.
The big-serving Italian has continued his rise back up the rankings following injury, with a trio of quarter-final runs on hardcourts this year teeing him up nicely for the clay swing.
Navone, 24, saw off Chun Hsin Tseng and Arthur Rinderknech in qualifying, dropping just one set along the way to make the main draw on debut at the MCC.
The South American has a 19-15 record on what is his favoured surface and this will be his fifth tournament on the dirt already this year, with a quarter-final in Buenos Aires his best result so far.
Navone has met Berrettini once before with the Italian prevailing 6-7 6-3 6-2 in the semi-finals in Marrakesh 12 months ago.
We see a similar outcome here with the world number 27 likely to set up a tasty round of 16 clash with world number two Zverev.
