The clay court season continues and the Monte Carlo Masters presents two decent second-round matchups today, April 7, 2026. These are short previews and our betting predictions for Alex de Minaur vs. Cameron Norrie and Alexei Popyrin vs. Casper Ruud.
Two real grinders on the tour. While both players are traditionally more comfortable on faster surfaces, they have both significantly improved their clay-court perfomances over the last seasons.
Cameron Norrie comes into this match with a good confidence boost, having defeated De Minaur just last month at Indian Wells in straight sets (6-4, 6-4). De Minaur, however, is the higher-seeded player and has been more consistent across the 2026 season, including a title win in Rotterdam.
