Grigor Dimitrov reached the Wimbledon quarter-finals last week and now returns to clay courts. He takes on the fifth seed Nuno Borges in round two of the Swedish Open in Bastad. Dimitrov had lost eight successive clay court matches before his first round win. Our prediction is a win for Borges.
Whoever wins will face either second seed Luciano Darderi (who Borges beat in Mallorca) or unseeded Daniel Altmaier in the last eight.
Dimitrov was only 146th in the latest ranking list and that was 94 places below his opponent in this match. His first five clay court matches this year were all lost. He finally got a win when beating Dalibar Svrcina in round one here. It took him three sets to do so, losing the second 6-1.
The pair are 1-1 in previous meetings but both were played on hard courts.
Nuno Borges won this title in 2024 but lost at this stage last year. He has a 7-7 record on clay this year. The quarter-finals were reached by him in both the ATP Barcelona tournament and the Challenger Tour event held in Cagliari.
This is his first tournament since losing to eventual champion Jannik Sinner in round two at Wimbledon.
Borges beat Moise Kouame 6-4 6-2 in round one.
