Daniel Elahi Galan v Thiago Monteiro Head to Head
The pair have played each other before, and that was playing for their respective countries five years ago, Galan winning in straight sets on hard courts.

Galan Reached Wimbledon Fourth Round
Galan has already reached a final this year on the Challenger tour, finishing runner-up at a clay tournament in April in Sarasota, having won the event there the previous year.
Unlike his opponent, Galan had a moderately successful grass court season, however.
It began with him qualifying for Eastbourne, although he was subsequently beaten by Cameron Norrie in the first round.
However, at Wimbledon itself, he enjoyed his best ever run in a Grand Slam, reaching the fourth round before finally losing to Jannik Sinner in the fourth round.
That should give him a boost of confidence as he enters the next part of the season.

Monteiro Needs Some Good Results
Monteiro is one of those players happy to feel clay under their feet again.
His flirtation with grass lasted just as long as it took him to lose his first round match at Wimbledon to the American, Christopher Eubanks in four sets.
Since then he has played in a Challenger event in Austria, back on clay, where he reached the quarter-final stage.
He has not been further than that this year in any tournament, whatever the level, and he needs to start putting some results together to maintain his top 100 status.
Sweden may be the place where he kick-starts his season.
Galan v Monteiro Prediction and Tip
Although they are now back on clay, Galan will have an extra spring in his step after what he achieved at Wimbledon, and that self-belief alone makes him favourite for this match.
Tips:
- Low Risk Tip: Galan to win: 7/9
- Moderate Risk Tip: Under 23.5 games in the match: 5/4
