THE PREDICTION

24-year-old Fabian Marozsan set a new career-high ATP world ranking of 57th after an excellent run to the round of 16 at Indian Wells was ended by eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz last week. The Hungarian burst onto the scene by stunning Alcaraz at the Italian Open last May but he has since proved himself more than a one-hit wonder with deep runs at the Shanghai Masters last October and again in the desert this month, upsetting 24th seed Nicolas Jarry either side of two dominant wins to look ready to push towards the top 40 this year.

World number 98 Aleksandar Kovacevic has enjoyed some the better form of his career in recent weeks and he looks game for a challenge after two solid straight-sets wins in qualifying. The 25-year-old reached the quarter-finals of the Los Cabos Open this time last month and he has impressed in competitive defeats to the likes of Stefanos Tsitsipas, Holger Rune and Karen Khachanov over the past few months. Marozsan should be coming through this first encounter in his current guise but there have been some inconsistencies that make this a really tough call. Back the Hungarian to earn at least a set to leave the victor up to chance.
