Nuno Borges vs Taylor Fritz prediction
Taylor Fritz will be confident of despatching Nuno Borges on the back of some heavyweight wins recently.
The American helped Team World to the Laver Cup by seeing off both Alexander Zverev and Carlos Alcaraz while he kicked off his bid in Japan by downing rising star Gabriel Diallo 4-6 6-3 7-6.
The second seed will now face the Portuguese world number 51 for just the second time having posted a 7-6 6-4 success on the hardcourts of Delray Beach last year.
Borges isn’t firing like he was in 2024 and wobbled before seeing off Japanese wildcard Yosuke Watanuki in three sets.
Fritz is playing smart tennis right now and coming up trumps in the big points, with even his B-game too good for an under-performing Borges in these conditions.
Nuno Borges vs Taylor Fritz tip: Taylor Fritz to win 2-0
