THE PREDICTION
World number eight Jannik Sinner withdrew from the quarter-finals of the Barcelona Open last month and missed out the Madrid Open entirely to guarantee his fitness for the Italian Open. The Italian number one will be backed to the hilt by a partisan crowd here and he has thoroughly impressed under the spotlight on home soil so far in his young career. World number 104 Thanasi Kokkinakis earned an early rest on Wednesday after Jaume Munar retired injured in their first set but clay is the Aussie’s least effective surface and he has already lost to Sinner in straight sets once this season. It may take Sinner some time to get going here but it is likelier that the 21-year-old is raring to go. Back Sinner to win in straight sets but consider adding a tiebreak into the mix as the pair have played three in their five sets together.
