THE PREDICTION

World number 11 Karen Khachanov did well to come back from two sets down to an unorthodox home hopeful in Constant Lestienne on Sunday and he should be better for it here The 27-year-old has reached the semi-finals in each of his last two Grand Slams, losing to eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz at the US Open last summer and to eventual runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas at the Australian Open this year, but his best run at Roland-Garros was a quarter-final exit in 2019. The Russian’s most prestigious title to date was won in Paris at the Masters event in 2018 but despite recently rediscovering his best level he has failed to add to his four ATP titles since. World number 113 Radu Albot did well to beat fellow qualifier Patrick Kypson in four sets on Sunday but the 33-year-old is unlikely to be able to cope with Khachanov’s relentless hitting here. A first meeting between the two could have been quite the battle at the Moldovan’s peak but Khachanov can be backed to win outright inside an accumulator and in straight sets on its own.
