It's been a while since Alexei Popyrin showed his best, but this week looks like a nice opportunity for world number 19 to get back to showing us what he's capable of. He's enjoyed himself in Montreal before, while Roman Andres Burruchaga does not do his best work on this surface. The Argentine has also not played on a hard court since the spring, while Popyrin has had two recent hard-court matches, one in Montreal, to get back into the swing of things.
At -164, Alexei Popyrin is hard to avoid, especially if you're looking for a player with strong Canadian open credentials. The Aussie has reached the quarters in each of his last two appearances at this tournament, going all the way back in 2024, defeating some top players on his way to lifting the trophy. That effort in Montreal is not easy to ignore, especially as he's up against a player who is far from a strong hard-courter.

Our Alexei Popyrin vs Roman Andres Burruchaga Prediction
The fact that Alexei Popyrin has played a couple of hard-court matches, including one in Montreal, bodes well, as does the fact that the Australian former world number 19 has previously won this event. We know he likes the conditions in Montreal, which probably won't suit Roman Andres Burruchaga too well. After all, the Argentine is at his best on clay courts, so don't be surprised if he comes up short against a superior hard-court competitor.
