Thiago Monteiro vs Casper Ruud Prediction & Picks - ATP Bastad Open
by Lou Aguila | in Tennis Picks
After a triumphant men’s doubles debut with Rafael Nadal, Casper Ruud of Norway will open his men’s singles campaign at the Swedish Open against Thiago Moura Monteiro of Brazil. Ruud has tagged along with Nadal for the men’s doubles competition in this event as part of their preparation for the upcoming Olympic Games. He will be playing his first singles match since bombing out in the second round of the 2024 Wimbledon Open. Ruud, who is known as a clay court expert, is expected to make a deep run on the red dirt Bastad where top guns like Andrey Rublev, Tallon Griekspoor and Nadal are also competing. Meanwhile, Montiero has punched his ticket to the second round following a 6-1, 6-3 win over Fernando Corea of Argentina. Before plunging into action in Bastad, Montiero racked up three straight clay court wins before falling in the semis of the Salzburg Challenger.

Our Thiago Monteiro vs Casper Ruud Prediction
Montiero is a tricky second-round opponent for Ruud mainly because the Brazilian beat him in their last clay court match in 2019. Still, Ruud has grown a lot as a player since that fateful day. Ruud dominated Montiero in their last matchup on the hard court at the United Cup 6-3, 6-2. We expect the Brazilian to give Ruud some scary moments in the match, but then, Ruud’s nearly 70 per cent win rate on clay should be enough reason for us to be confident about his ability to win this testy match. Our betting prediction for Casper Ruud vs. Thiago Moura Montiero: Bet on OVER 21.5 games, -105, at BetMGM.
