Roberto Bautista Agut against Casper Ruud prediction

Casper Ruud most recently played at the Miami Open and won his first two rounds before just defeating Francisco Cerundolo. He may now start the most decisive time of his season at the Monte-Carlo Masters. It is no secret that the Norwegian likes to play on the red clay and won 11 of his 12 titles on the surface, and he made the final of this event last year. Unfortunately for Ruud, he was defeated by Stefanos Tsitsipas, who won the tournament for the third time.

He will compete against the veteran Roberto Bautista Agut in the second round. The Spaniard beat Brandon Nakashima 6-2 6: 4 in his best win of the season so far. He also heads his head 3: 1, including a victory on Clay at the Munich Open in 2018.

However, Ruud was only 19 years old during this encounter and has improved considerably as a player, especially on this surface. We expect a comfortable victory for seed number four.
