Nuno Borges vs Mariano Navone prediction

Mariano Navone faces Nuno Borges in a tricky opener for both players. 

The Argentine is just four places better off in the rankings and their head-to-head stands at 1-1.

Navone comes into this having sealed a title in Bucharest and he did cruise to a 6-2 6-2 success on their only meeting on clay at the 2024 Olympics. 

Portugal’s Borges won in three on the hardcourts of Auckland last year, so we fancy the Argentine to make his preference for the surface count.
