Playing styles and prediction
Munar had been in poor form throughout the clay court swing but the 27 year-old has been boosted by a run to the Aix en Provence Challenger final. Now the Spaniard will aim to capitalize on that form as he looks for consistency on the main tour heading into Roland Garros.
Norrie will need to be patient in this match against a passive opponent while also maintaining his recent aggression. Meanwhile Munar will look to extend the rallies and use depth to force errors from the Brit’s game. Expect a long match full of ebbs and flows but Norrie should have enough quality and aggression to secure victory.
Prediction: Norrie in three sets.
