The main draw of the 2025 Croatia Open in Umag gets underway. Francesco Passaro takes on wild card Matej Dodig for a place in round two of this outdoor clay court tournament. Read our match prediction below.
Passaro is coming off a good display in the Swiss Open in Gstaad. He came through qualifying and then beat eighth-seeded Arthur Rinderknech before losing to Jerome Kym. The Argentine is up to 121st in the live rankings.
This year has seen him win 19 of his 29 clay court matches. Seven of his last ten matches on this surface have ended in victory. Four Challenger Tour quarter-finals have been reached and one last four appearance so far in 2025.
Matej Dodig is a career-high 242nd in the live rankings. Being Croatian, he was granted a wild card for this tournament so avoided having to qualify. The 20-year-old won the Challenger Tour event played in Trieste earlier this month.
Last week didn't go so well and he was beaten by Jan Choinski on the Bunschoten Challenger Tour. This is his first ATP Tour event of 2025. Last year, he made it to round two of this tournament.
We tip Francesco Passaro to win and in round two face third seed Camila Ugo Carabelli.
