Brandon Nakashima of the United States vies for a spot in the third round of the 2025 Italian Open when he tangles with Jordan Thompson of Australia on Friday in Rome, Italy.
Nakashima gained solid results in Madrid following two first-round exits in Monte Carlo and Barcelona. The American rattled off two impressive wins, including a 7-5 6-3 win over Flavio Cabolli of Italy in the third round. Nakashima eventually lost to former world’s No.1 Danil Medvedev of Russia 3-6 6-1 6-4 in round of 16, but his recent run in Madrid should bolster his spirit ahead of the French Open.
Thompson captured only his second win in four clay-court matches this year as he outgunned Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard of France 3-6 6-3 7-6(5) in the first round. Thompson collected 36 points off his first serves and broke Perricard’s serves twice.

Our Jordan Thompson vs Brandon Nakashima Prediction
Brandon Nakashima holds a 4-2 head-to-head record against Jordan Thompson, though Friday’s match will be the first time these two play each other on the red dirt. Despite the circumstance, I still think Nakashima will win because he has the momentum right now following his fourth-round finish in Madrid. Thompson’s victory over the big-serving Perricard is impressive, but I still don’t think he did enough to make me pick him over an in-form Nakashima on Friday. Our betting prediction for Brandon Nakashima vs. Jordan Thompson: Brandon Nakashima will win 2-0.
