THE PREDICTION
24-year-old Alex Molcan broke the top 40 for a first time this week after a run to the semi-finals of the Hamburg Open was ended by Carlos Alcaraz on Saturday. The Slovak overcame a home hopeful in Duje Ajdukovic in straight sets on Tuesday to continue his fine form and he could go far at the Umag Open with top 50 players required to knock him out of his last six tournaments. Having aid that, world number 86 Roberto Carballes Baena knocked Molcan out of the Madrid Open qualifiers and whilst this is their first tour-level meeting that recent result should come into our reckoning here. 29-year-old Carballes Baena beat Henri Laaksonene in straight sets on Monday for a first tour-level win since ousting Oscar Otte at Roland-Garros and the Spaniard is at home on this surface. Molcan’s star is rising more fiercely each week, though, and taking him to win this outright seems a reasonable risk.
