Nikoloz Basilashvili started in 2021 extremely favorable when winning the Qatar Open championship. In the final on March 13, the world -class 35th player defeated Roberto Bautista Agut to be crowned. This is also the 4th ATP title in the career of the Georgia star.
However, since then, Basilashvili has not maintained its best performance. In turn, at the following tournaments, Dubai Open and Miami Open, the 29 -year -old player were eliminated from the first round. Therefore, he is making a high determination for the Munich Open.
Basilashvili's opponent in the first round of this year Munich Open is Thiago Monteiro – the world ranked 78th in the world. Last time, Monteiro was also not good in form. After reaching the quarterfinals of Cordoba Open 2021, the Brazilian star stopped in the Monte Carlo qualifier and Barcelona Open.

At that time, Monteiro was the one who won the absolute win after 3 sets, with the score of 7-5, 6-4 and 6-2 respectively. Therefore, the Brazilian tennis player is rated marginally in the battle with Basilashvili this afternoon.
