Joao Fonseca is coming off a big win in the first round at the French Open to set up a clash against Pierre-Hugues Herbert. The two are set to meet for the first time ever, and the winner is drawn to face Gael Monfils or Jack Draper. We have a prediction for this match below.
Brazilian teenager Fonseca showed his earlier season prowess in the last match as he saw off Hubert Hurkacz in the first round. Fonseca needed under one hour and 30 minutes to beat Hurkacz 3-0.
With that win he registered a 24th win of the season, a solid run that has delivered one clay title, in Buenos Aires.
Pierre-Hugues Herbert, on the other hand, started his French Open 2025 campaign with a win over compatriot Benjamin Bonzi. In a thrilling encounter, the two needed five sets to settle the match.
The win marked the Frenchman’s first Grand Slam victory at the main draw since the 2020 French Open. He will be playing in the second round at Roland Garros for the fourth time but has failed to go past this stage on two occasions.
His run at tour-level main draws is not the best, and Fonseca may just have a chance to end the homeboy’s run at Roland Garros.

Our Joao Fonseca vs Pierre-Hugues Herbert Prediction
Joao Fonseca will be looking to go deeper on his French Open debut. He took advantage of a struggling Hubert Hurkacz in the first round, winning in straight sets. The Brazilian will be confident, having beaten a higher-ranking opponent, and will be the outright favorite here.
Pierre-Hugues Herbert, having registered the first main draw win at the French Open, will come well charged up for this. The fact that he will enjoy home support should add to his strengths, but that may not be enough against Fonseca. Our prediction for Joao Fonseca v Pierre-Hugues Herbert is for Fonseca to win in four sets.
