ATP Monte Carlo Day 4 Predictions Including Daniil Medvedev vs Gael Monfils
The fourth day at the ATP Monte Carlo Masters should be the best yet. As always, we here at LWOT will be offering our predictions for all eleven matches on the slate on day four in the Principality, but who will book their place in the third round?
ATP Monte Carlo Day 4 Predictions
Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Lorenzo Sonego
Head-to-head: Auger-Aliassime 2-1 Sonego
Clay has been Felix Auger-Aliassime’s least favourite surface throughout his career. But he started his 2024 season on the dirt very impressively against Luca Nardi in the last round. Lorenzo Sonego is in the second-round as a lucky loser. Yet, the Italian is more than capable on clay when he finds his range, demonstrated by a quarterfinal run at the ATP Monte Carlo Masters in 2019. At his best, Auger-Aliassime’s power will take him to victory but do not be surprised if this is a close match.
Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Tomas Martin Etcheverry
Head-to-head: first meeting
2021 French Open runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas will probably be relieved to return to the Masters 1000 event he’s won on two occasions. It has been a patchy start to the season for the Greek and he needs to build momentum somewhere. However, this is a very tricky opening match. Tomas Martin Etcheverry plays his best tennis on clay, reaching the quarterfinal at Roland Garros last year. An upset is not impossible if the Argentine strikes his powerful forehand as well as he can. But the conditions in Monte Carlo always suit Tsitsipas’ game perfectly and he should have enough to prevail.
Prediction: Tsitsipas in 2
