Valentin Vacherot vs Mariano Navone prediction
Mariano Navone produced a superb display to upset Matteo Berrettini and reach the second round.
The Argentine is very much known for his expertise on clay but put together an excellent game-plan to down the big-hitting Italian 6-3 6-7 6-3.
The world number 44 will now take on 14th seed Valentin Vacherot for a second time after the Monegasque eased to a 6-3 6-4 success in Miami in their only previous meeting earlier this year.
Vacherot has not quite found consistency since reaching the last four in Monte Carlo and will be well aware Navone is full of confidence in what is going to be the best year of his career in terms of match wins.
It’s not an easy call given how well Navone played in taking down Berrettini in a match-up that should have suited the former Wimbledon finalist in these conditions. With that in mind we are going to suggest the South American can continue to be a nuisance, but that still many not result in victory.
Valentin Vacherot vs Mariano Navone tip: Over 2.5 sets
