Casper Ruud v Jaume Munar Head to Head
There have been two previous meetings between these players at the highest level and one other at the Challengers. All three matches came on clay and Ruud won each one of them.

Ruud Coming off Shock Exit at Seoul
After making the US Open final, the new world number two, Ruud featured in his first ATP tournament last week in Seoul.
And there was that sense of rustiness in his play, or at least a bit of a lack of rhythm which was bit of a surprise given he had played a match at the Davis Cup and Laver Cup in successive weeks.
After a first round bye at the Korea Open, Ruud was taken to three sets by Nicolas Jarry in the second. And then going up against Yoshihito Nishioka as a 1/4 favourite in the quarterfinals, Ruud had to bite the dust as he fell to a three-set defeat.
It might well be a case of a minor blip that accompanies what he achieved at Flushing Meadows and Ruud should get back to his solid ways soon enough.

Munar 2-5 Since US Open Series Start
Munar’s go-to surface is clay and in the absence of any tournaments on that, his struggles have been obvious. In more recent times, he has won just two of his main draw matches on hard court surfaces, having played seven.
One of those victories was courtesy of a retirement of his opponent, while the other came against Chun Hsin Tseng, a player who was ranked 30-odd places lower than him.
His performances in the first quarter of the season were better, with Munar winning and losing five matches apiece in hard court tournaments.
And now as he kick-starts a campaign against the world number two, he will know things could get tougher before he shows any change to his results.
Ruud v Munar Prediction and Tip
This should not cause Ruud too much trouble and we can expect a straight-set win for the world number two.
Tip: Ruud to win in straight sets: 1/2 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
