THE PREDICTION

World number 50 Dan Evans grabbed the best ranking win of his career here in Monte-Carlo three years ago, stunning Novak Djokovic en-route to the semi-finals before a consummate defeat to eventual champion Stefanos Tsitsipas. The 33-year-old is far from his best on the surface, though, and he takes a two-match losing streak into the draw after an early exit to Roberto Carballes Baena at the Marrakech Open – to whom he lost in last season’s semi-finals there. World number 44 Sebastian Ofner enjoyed an excellent breakthrough season on clay last summer, reaching the round of 16 at Roland-Garros, but he too suffered an early exit in Marrakech in a gruelling three-setter with Aleksandar Vukic. Evans found some of the form of his career late last season but he has struggled to rediscover it since a tough injury in October. Back Ofner to win at least a set from their first encounter as the much more comfortable in these conditions.

TIP: SEBASTIAN OFNER TO WIN A SET
