WGM’s Best Bets: Monday 11 April 2016

Clay court specialists Richard Gasquet and Nicolas Almagro meet in what should be an epic early round clash at the Monte Carlo Masters.

However, we’re heavily leaning towards a straight sets win for Gasquet based on recent form. The Frenchman has been typically solid to start 2016 while Almagro has struggled over the past few months with a number of poor results on his favorite surface including a shock loss to world number 278 Thiago Monteiro in Sao Paulo recently.
