Early on Thursday, there's action from the ATP event in Estoril, Portugal. Home-soil player Nuno Borges will take on Lorenzo Musetti as he bids to continue moving up the rankings. Both youngsters will likely see this as a winnable contest, that's for sure, so we could be in for a good match. For Musetti, it's a chance to beat a player currently further down the rankings, while for Borges, who is rapidly improving, it's a chance to lay down another marker and show the tennis world that he's a player to start taking very seriously.

Our Nuno Borges vs Lorenzo Musetti Prediction

On the face of it, Musetti is a strong favourite here, but we shouldn't neglect the fact that it's been a long time since he played competitively on the clay, while he's up against an in-form player who warmed up nicely for this match with a solid clay-court win just a few days ago. Borges has been improving in recent weeks, winning six of his last seven matches, while he's currently on a clay-court winning streak of six. Don't be surprised if the man playing in his native Portugal upsets the Italian here, and at early BetMGM odds, he looks a good bet to do that. Our Prediction: Nuno Borges to Win.
