Reilly Opelka vs Ignacio Buse prediction
Reilly Opelka seems determined to make a difference this year. The American came close to capturing a title in Brisbane, but Jiri Lehecka denied him in the final. He will be eager to prepare well ahead of the French Open and make a deep run in Aix-en-Provence.
Buse, on the other hand, is one of the most talented youngsters on tour. The Peruvian is still working towards his game and has a bright future ahead. Apart from a few Davis Cup matches and a first-round appearance in the Chile Open this year, Buse hasn't featured much on the main tour.
A tricky encounter will be on the cards in the quarterfinal. Opelka will have experience on his side, but Buse has been in amazing form in Aix-en-Provence. Considering their skill set on clay and decision-making skills on the court, Buse might just edge past Opelka and enter the semifinal on Friday.
Pick: Buse to win in straight sets.
