THE PREDICTION

This should be another entertaining edition of an already storied head-to-head record between world number 18 Pablo Carreno Busta and number 24 Karen Khachanov, with the Russian just edging things 4-3 as things stand. 30-year-old Carreno Busta beat Federico Delbonis in straight sets on Monday whilst 25-year-old Khachanov also got is Rome Masters campaign underway comfortably in a straight-sets victory over wildcard Giulio Zeppieri. Both players are solid all-courters with excellent games for the clay and you can expect plenty of lengthy rallies from two of the fitter baseliners in the business. PCB has won both of their meetings on clay, at Monte-Carlo in both 2017 and last season, so backing the Spaniard to win at least a set looks the sensible move here.
