THE PREDICTION
Cam Norrie is enjoying the best season of his career so far in 2021 and has reached two ATP 250 event finals on clay at the Estoril Open and last week’s Lyon Open. The British number two is third on the win/loss leaderboard across the ATP tour, with only Andrey Rublev and Stefanos Tsitsipas ahead of him on wins this season, and he will be a dangerous opponent to anybody in Paris. Bjorn Fratangelo played well to reach the first round of Roland-Garros via three competitive qualifying matches but the 27-year-old is unlucky to have met one of the most in-form players on tour right now. Norrie should be winning this match in three sets but the 25-year-old is rarely the solid favourite and could struggle to dominate so take him to win outright.
