THE PREDICTION
World number 50 Tomas Machac beat Jerry Shang in the first round of the Barcelona Open last week before having to withdraw from the round of 16 in what was hopefully a precautionary move. The 23-year-old set a career-high of 43rd after his excellent run to the quarter-finals of the Miami Open this time last month, where he upset Andrey Rublev and overcame a resurgent Andy Murray, but there is very little data for his efficacy on clay to go on here. World number 71 Emil Ruusuvuori comes in cold on the surface after having to pull out from the Monte-Carlo Masters two weeks ago but he has proven to be a solid all-courter in recent years. The Finn started 2024 off swimmingly with a maiden final reached at the Hong Kong Open, where he lost to the aforementioned Rublev, but a three-match losing streak stretching back to February says Machac can squeeze through their first tour-level encounter.
TIP: TOMAS MACHAC TO WIN
