THE PREDICTION
This should be an entertaining clash of styles between the diminutive but highly talented Corentin Moutet and big-serving Alexei Popyrin. World number 46 Popyrin came back from a set down to beat Stan Wawrinka to the Umag Open title last summer, proving his credentials on clay, but the Aussie has struggled to perform to his nest level consistently for the majority of his still-young career. A third round exit to Fabian Marozsan at the Miami Open, following an impressive upset of Jiri Lehecka, leaves few clues as to his readiness for Monte-Carlo but world number 101 Moutet will be a serious and frustrating test. The Frenchman, also 24, qualified impressively this weekend to prove himself far better than his current deflated ranking, after struggling with injuries, suggests and he will be backed to the hilt here as a cult figure in these parts. Back Moutet to earn at least a set to leave the victor up to chance.
TIP: CORENTIN MOUTET TO WIN A SET
