After a good run in Montreal, Nuno Borges will want to go well in the Cincinnati Open. Round one of this outdoor hard court tournament sees him face Thanasi Kokkinakis who has never beaten Borges. Our prediction is a win for Borges over his opponent.

The winner will take 20th seed Francisco Cerundolo in round two of this Masters tournament.

Nuno Borges is the world number 55  and that's 379 places above Kokkinakis. He has a 10-9 record on outdoor hard courts this year. His most recent tournament saw him make it to the last 16 of the Canadian Open, losing to Luciano Darderi.

He has reached one ATP Tour outdoor hard court tournament quarter-final this year.  Borges leads his opponent 2-0 in previous meetings. Both were played on this surface in 2024 and won in straight sets. One was a best-of-five set in the US Open.

Thanasi Kokkinakis has had another year in which he's battled against injury problems.. He has only played 14 matches this year and just four of those have been on this surface with a 2-2 record.

Three times he has had to retire from a match this year and twice withdraw from a tournament.

On all surfaces, he is yet to get past round two of a tournament this year.
