Nuno Borges and Alexei Popyrin will go face-to-face in the third round of the French Open on Friday. The two are meeting for the third time, with the winner to face Tommy Paul or Karen Khachanov next. We have a prediction for the match below. Nuno Borges withstood over two hours to see off world No. 8 Casper Ruud in four sets in the last round. Whereas it was a well-deserved win, Borges somehow depended on Ruud’s discomfort, caused by a lingering knee injury. This is Borges’ first ever appearance in the third round of the French Open. Having arrived here on a level run on clay, Borges will be positive after compiling an 8-6 record.
Alexei Popyrin has also made the most of opponents struggling with injury. He secured wins in straight sets against Yoshihito Nishioka and then, more recently, Alejandro Tabilo. With Popyrin advancing to the third round, we now have two players getting that far for the first time. One of them will go even further. Popyrin will hope he takes up the slot, even though his run in the season has left a lot to be desired. The Australian is on a 10-12 record for the season, and he has compiled an 8-5 run on clay.
