Jordan Thompson vs Stefanos Tsitsipas prediction

Defending champion Stefanos Tsitsipas begins his quest for a fourth Monte Carlo Masters title against Jordan Thompson. 

The Greek has an imperious 20-3 record in Monaco and comes into the tournament in resurgent mood after working his way back into the world’s top ten. 

The sixth seed won his first title since he beat Casper Ruud in The Principality last year when he prevailed in Dubai at the end of February and will be eager to build upon a solid start to 2025 on his favoured surface. 

Thompson suffered a shock loss to wildcard Ethan Quinn in Houston but impressively made short work of Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard by a 6-4 6-3 scoreline in the first round. 

The Aussie trails Tsitsipas 3-1 in the head-to-head and with this being their first clash on clay we’re expecting the reigning champion to make a statement of intent with a dominant win.
