THE PREDICTION

Expect fireworks between two young players desperately seeking their currently elusive best form on tour as world number seven Holger Rune and number 26 Lorenzo Musetti meet for the second time. 20-year-old Rune received a walkover to the third round after Milos Raonic was forced to pull out of their fixture but he could well have done with a run-up to this potentially tough clash as he continues to labour to victory on tour, with a defeat in three sets to Casper Ruud in Acapulco two weeks ago capping off a not wholly convincing first campaign back with ex-coach Patrick Mouratoglou. The Dane should still have enough to come through this test against Musetti but the Italian overcame fellow struggler Denis Shapovalov in three sets on Saturday to at least bring some fight. 22-year-old Musetti will be eagerly anticipating a return to his favoured clay after another tough spell on the hardcourt swing but both players are far from their fluent best at this juncture. Back Rune to win outright for caution’s sake.

TIP: HOLGER RUNE TO WIN
