Casper Ruud is seeded ninth in the National Bank Open in Montreal. He has a first round bye and will face the winner of this match between Juan Manuel Cerundolo and Hamad Medjedovic. Cerundolo has been struggling on this surface of late and our prediction is a Medjedovic win.

Juan Manuel Cerundolo was 50th in the last rankings, 23 places above his opponent. However, his higher ranking is due to success on other surfaces. mainly clay. Of his 27 wins this year, only two have been on outdoor hard courts with the same number of losses.

He lost in qualifying for Auckland, round one of the Australian Open and the second round in Indian Wells.

His last two matches on this surface have ended in defeat.

He's played a tie-break in three of his last four matches. Earlier this year, he played two in a match against Botic van de Zandschulp on this surface. Majchrzak has played one in three of his last four outdoor hard court matches, so a side bet on one here could be profitable.

Hamad Medjedovic has won four of his six matches on this surface in 2026. Like his opponent he has failed to get past round two of an ATP Tour outdoor hard court tournament this year. This is his first tournament since June 28.
