Rafael Nadal vs Aljaz Bedene Tennis Prediction

Today we have a very intersting match for online betting. Our tennis prediction is ready for you to bet!
The Spaniard leads the H2H 1-0. Nadal has lost just once on clay in the last 15 months (vs. Dominic Thiem in Rome Masters) and it’s going to take a massive effort from Bedene to get anything out of this contest.

Rafael Nadal News

The top seed Rafael Nadal got a first-round bye and will kickstart his 15th Monte Carlo campaign on Wednesday. He has never lost the opening round match here and losing to Guillermo Coria in the round of 16 in 2003 (debut appearance) was the earliest exit he suffered in this tournament.
Rafael Nadal is the most successful player in the history of Monte Carlo Masters having won this title ten times in the past, including winning them in seven consecutive seasons between 2005-2012. He is also the two-times defending champion as he won the title here in 2016 and 2017.
If not for an utterly dominant Novak Djokovic during 2012-2015, Nadal could have added two more Monte Carlo titles to his tally as two of his recent three defeats in Monte Carlo came against the Serbian #1, in 2013 and 2015.
Rafael Nadal reclaimed the #1 spot after Roger Federer failed to defend his points in the recently concluded sunshine doubles. He now has got a bulk of points to defend in the coming weeks, and it’s almost impossible for him to remain as the #1 by the end of the clay swing.
Playing his first matches since retiring against Marin Cilic in the quarterfinal of the Australian Open 2018, Rafael Nadal looked ever so comfortable during his straight-set wins over Alexander Zverev and Philipp Kohlschreiber in the Davis Cup Group One quarterfinal tie earlier this month.

Aljaz Bedene News

Aljaz Bedene registered his 12th win of the season and third in a row by defeating Mirza Basic on Monday. Nine of his 12 wins in 2018 have come on the clay courts.
Before Monte Carlo, the Slovenian entered two clay tournaments and managed to reach at least the quarterfinal in both of them, at Rio de Janeiro (QF) and Buenos Aires (F).
Bedene’s only previous appearance in Monte Carlo ended in a second round exit at the hands of none other than, Rafael Nadal, in 2016, 3-6 3-6.

Tennis Prediction: Nadal Corect Score 2-0 SET
Odds: 1.25
