Nicolas Jarry vs Grigor Dimitrov prediction

Two-time quarter-finalist Grigor Dimitrov arrives in Monaco on the back of his best form of the year so far. 

The Bulgarian has won six of his last eight matches and reached the semi-finals in Miami last time out with his only defeats of late coming to Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic. 

Jarry’s best surface is clay, but he is a touch undercooked in 2025 having won just one match from six since the turn of the year.

The form guide sides with Dimitrov here but this will be their fourth meeting and Jarry has won two of the previous three. Both of those victories were on clay, including a 7-6 6-1 success in the final in Geneva. 

Dimitrov is the safe bet but a punt over 2.5 sets may be better value and Jarry definitely has the weapons to do serious damage if he hits the ground running.
