THE PREDICTION

World number seven Holger Rune was made to work hard for his straight-sets victory over Michael Mmoh on Friday as he continues to seek out his best form on tour. The 20-year-old first truly blossomed on the late hardcourt swing of 2022 with a series of impressive results indoors culminating in an incredible comeback over Novak Djokovic in the Paris Masters final but 2023, at least the second half, saw him struggle to maintain his intensity long enough to put away the better players. Former number 12 Borna Coric enjoyed a straight-sets victory over Flavio Cobolli on Friday to boost some confidence after a poor start to 2024. The Croat was forced to end his season early after injury at the US Open in August but at his best he is capable of knocking on the door of the top 10, particularly on hardcourts, and he is a tough player to put away once he reaches the latter stages of a tournament. Rune should be winning this first encounter in straight sets but with neither player at their best this could end up a lengthy battle. Back the Dane to win outright.

TIP: HOLGER RUNE TO WIN
