Laslo Djere vs Mariano Navone prediction

Laslo Djere is playing his first event since his victory in the Chile Open, which was a dramatic three-set win against Sebastian Baez. He also made the semi-finals in Argentina just a week earlier, losing a close three-set battle to Joao Fonseca, who would go on to win the event.

The Serb has not played for the last three weeks, but he has a very strong foundation to build upon as we enter the European clay court season and should fancy his chances here. 

A tough first-round match sees him face seventh seed Mariano Navone, who made the final here last year. His results in the South American swing were not as strong, though he did still muster a quarter-final appearance in Argentina, also losing out to Fonseca.

This could prove to be the tightest first-round match of the event, with both players comfortable on clay but we think Djere will battle his way through in a closely fought contest.
