THE PREDICTION

World number 23 Borna Coric received a bye top the round of 16 at the Montpellier Open as the third seed here and he comes off an impressive turn for Croatia in the Davis Cup qualifiers last week, beating both Dominic Thiem and Dennis Novak in straight sets. The 26-year-old was the ATP’s Comeback of the Year last season after his return from surgery was fast-tracked with an incredible first Masters title claimed at the Cincinnati Open in August. World number 68 Arthur Rinderknech snapped a three-match losing streak on Tuesday with a straight sets victory over Luca Nardi but it is hard to see the Frenchman seriously challenging Coric so soon after losing their first meeting in straight sets last month at the United Cup. Home advantage may boost the Frenchman but Coric can be backed to take this in straight sets, or outright inside an accumulator.
