Marcel Granollers will face French wildcard Jeremy Chardy on Tuesday in the first round of the ATP Paris MastersYou can watch and bet on the Paris Masters live for free at bet365 > live tennisMarcel Granollers enjoyed an incredible week in Valencia prior to this year’s ATP Paris Masters, and he’ll be looking to replicate this form in front of the fans here in France. The Spaniard emerged from a high quality field to lift the title in Valencia, beating the likes of Gael Monfils, Juan Martin Del Potro and Juan Monaco on the way to his unexpected success.
Granollers will be hoping to maintain his momentum on Tuesday when he takes on Jeremy Chardy in the first round. Chardy is the world No. 110, and enters this tournament as a wildcard. His performances at ATP level have generally been disappointing this season. He’ll need to up his game to stay involved in the main draw.
Granollers has never previously met Chardy in ATP competition but his status as the favourite is not in question. Having won two top tier titles this year, the world No. 28 seems likely to have the edge. Chardy will be buoyed by the support of the home crowd, but he’ll need more than just support to get past Granollers.
