THE PREDICTION

This promises to be an entertaining clash between two robust clay-court lovers in world number 54 Dominik Koepfer and number 68 Roberto Carballes Baena. 31-year-old RCB came agonisingly close to defending his Marrakech Open title earlier this month, finishing runner-up to Matteo Berrettini, but he responded well to the disappointment with a great run to the last 16 in Barcelona last week. The Spaniard will be backed well as a popular underdog with an engaging game but 29-year-old Koepfer should not be underestimated in these conditions despite bringing a four-match losing streak into Madrid. The German upset Sebastian Baez and Ugo Humbert en-route to a round of 16 exit to Daniil Medvedev at the Miami Open this time last month and his last two defeats since have been very competitive. Back Carballes Baena to earn at least a set to leave this result up to chance but it would be wise to leave this tough call out of any promising accumulators.

TIP: ROBERTO CARBALLES BAENA TO WIN A SET
