CORENTIN MOUTET VS SEBASTIAN OFNER PREDICTION

World number 79 Corentin Moutet has been handed Simonne-Mathieu for the third match running at Roland-Garros, clearly opting to develop the same cauldron-like home atmosphere that Nick Kyrgios enjoys on the smaller show court at the Australian Open. The 25-year-old is a hugely difficult player to overcome on his favoured clay and a fabulous wind-up merchant, both qualities that have earned him cult status at the French Open.

World number 45 Sebastian Ofner faces the thankless task of playing the villain of this piece after a brilliant comeback form two sets down to stun 20th seed Sebastian Baez. The 28-year-old reached the round of 16 here last season with some similarly battling displays but the rain delays have cost him a day’s recovery that should see him fatigued in this debilitating clash. Back Moutet to reach the round of 16.
