THE PREDICTION

World number six Andrey Rublev takes a five-match winning streak and a heap of rare self-belief into the Banja Luka Open after finally winning his first Masters title at the Monte-Carlo Open last week . The 25-year-old twice came back from a set down to beat top 10 players Taylor Fritz and Holger Rune in the latter stages and it should take quality of that level to oust him this week as the favourite behind Novak Djokovic to lift the title on Sunday. World number 92 Juan Pablo Varillas beat Hugo Gaston in straight sets on Tuesday for a solid start to his campaign but the Peruvian has struggled on clay since reaching the semi-finals of the Buenos Aires Open in February. This first meeting with Rublev looks way too steep a climb. Back the Russian to win in straight sets.
