THE PREDICTION
World number 19 Alexander Zverev just missed out on a bye to the round of 16 at the Bastad Open but a three-set victory over Alex Molcan is a good way to recalibrate on clay after the grass swing. The 26-year-old faces new allegations of abuse off the court that could affect his performance on it, and his reception by the crowd, but this should be a winnable fixture against Thiago Monteiro. World number 122 Monteiro came back from a set down to oust Daniel Elahi Galan on Monday but the Brazilian’s now 8-15 record for the season is concerning considering he has looked strong in a number of defeats. The 29-year-old is at his bets on clay and always gives a hardy effort but it is likely that Zverev can overpower him in his own service games and overpower him down both wings. The German won their only previous encounter in a Davis Cup qualifier last season in straight sets, on clay, but given the outside factors surrounding this match the sensible option would be taking Zverev to win outright.
