Nuno Borges vs Damir Dzumhur prediction
Nuno Borges is seeded fourth for this event. His form has not been great in 2026 so far, and he has 10 defeats from his 17 matches so far. He began the year by making the quarter-finals of the Hong Kong Open, but he has failed to pick up back-to-back victories since that point. A continuation of poor results is likely to see Borges drop out of the top 50 in the world rankings.
He did receive a bye in round one and now takes on Damir Dzumhur. The 33-year-old required a deciding set tiebreak to defeat fellow countryman Filip Cristian Jianu. Dzumhur was close to exiting the tournament as Cristian Jianu served for the match at 6-5 in the third set, but he broke straight back and edged ahead in the breaker to win 6-3 4-6 7-6 (4).
Borges won their previous ATP meeting in Hong Kong right at the start of the year, but Dzumhur is likely to make this more competitive on clay, while he also has home support on his side.
Nuno Borges vs Damir Dzumhur tip: Both players to win a set
