THE PREDICTION
Jan-Lennard Struff lost in the quarter-finals of the Sardegna Open last week to Nikoloz Basilahvili and the German has struggled for consistent, reliable form all season long. He will face Grigor Dimitrov for the fifth time overall in their careers and third time at this tournament, with a win apiece in Monte-Carlo contributing to their 2-2 head-to-head record. Grigor Dimitrov comes into this tournament a little cold having been shocked in back-to-back matches in defeats to Lorenzo Musetti at the Mexican Open and Cameron Norrie at the Miami Open last week. The Bulgarian is well capable of winning this match at a canter but wholly unpredictable as a player, making for an exciting match but difficult result to call. With neither at their best, this match looks on course for a decider so take a total of three sets here and leave the winner up to chance.
