Carlos Alcaraz of Spain will play Holger Rune of Denmark in Sunday’s men’s singles championship match at the 2025 Barcelona Open.
Alcaraz is on the brink of completing a clay-court double in Monte Carlo and Barcelona in a span of two weeks if he can overcome his finale test, world’s No.13 Holger Rune. Alcaraz advanced to his second clay-court final after besting Arthur Fils 6-2 6-4 for the second time in two weeks. After escaping with a three-set win over the young Frenchman in the earlier duel in Monaco, the reigning French Open champion produced a better form in their rematch, winning 100 percent of his serves and breaking Fils three times. Alcaraz has now won his last 10 matches on clay and 21 of his last 22 matches on the surface.
After a two-year wait, Rune gets another shot at Alcaraz after defeated Karen Khachanov 6-3 6-2 in straight sets. Rune, who also eliminated defending champion Casper Ruud in the quarterfinal 6-4 6-2, is seeking his third career clay-court title and first since ruling the Bavarian Open in 2023.

Our Carlos Alcaraz vs Holger Rune Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Carlos Alcaraz’s supremacy continues with a straight-set win over Holger Rune.
All the concerns about Alcaraz’s shaky form during his title run at Monte Carlo are now gone after the Spaniard fashioned out an emphatic semifinal win over the Frenchman on Saturday. Alcaraz is coming into the final of the Barcelona Open scatheless after four matches. Rune will also enter the championship match with a head of steam behind him following two signature wins over Khachanov and Ruud, who won the tournament last year. Still, it’s hard to bet against Alcaraz after seeing him destroy De Minaur and Fils, who are both enjoying way better seasons than Ruud and Khachanov. Alcaraz could have a typical slow start in the final but I am confident he will eventually find his range and rhythm in the middle of first set before hitting the gas pedal. Our betting prediction for Carlos Alcaraz vs. Holger Rune: Carlos Alcaraz will cover -5.5 games.
