THE PREDICTION
Expect fireworks in this first meeting between two exciting young players who are prone to the occasional outburst. World number seven Holger Rune is certainly the favourite as one of the very best on clay on tour but the Dane had to fight tooth and nail to be here after edging past Alexander Bublik via an 11-9 deciding tiebreak on Friday. Rune successfully defended his Munich Open title last week with a hard-fought win over Botic van de Zandschulp to make it five victories on the spin but there the door is certainly slightly ajar for Davidovich Fokina, who will receive a partisan atmosphere on Sunday. Davidovich Fokina and Rune are the last two players to finish runner-up at the Monte-Carlo Masters to prove their pedigree on clay but despite home advantage Rune should be able to eventually squeeze through the majority of the key moments. 23-year-old ADF beat Albert Ramos-Vinolas in straight sets on Friday for a solid foothold in Madrid but back Rune to come through outright here.
