Bublik has done decently in the season so far. After an early exit from the Australian Open 2021, he made up for it by reaching the Finals of the Singapore Open. After that he backed it up with reaching the round of sixteen at the Rotterdam Open. In the Middle Eastern part of the tour, he was ousted early. In Qatar it was Agut who got the better of him and In Dubai it was Sinner who ousted him.

The last tournament he participated in, in singles, was the Miami Open where he lost in the Quarter finals to Jannik Sinner, 7-6. 6-4. In the Andalucia Open he chose to participate only in the doubles. His first round opponent here at the Monte Carlo Masters is veteran Frenchman Jérémy Chardy.

Chardy has had a blow hot blow cold season. Post the unceremonious exit in the first round of the Australian Open, to his nemesis Novak Djokovic, Chardy has played in four tournaments. In those four tournaments, he has reached the Quarter-final in two and been ousted in the first round in two. He has reached the Quarter Final of the Rotterdam Open and the Dubai open, while he was ousted in the first round in Qatar and the just concluded Miami Open.

Bublik has been in some good form in the last few weeks. His victory over Taylor Fritz was especially impressive. Chardy grows as a player when you put him on the slow clay courts and he will give Bublik a tough fight. But Bublik on current form should edge this. 

Match Prediction: Alexander Bublik will beat Jérémy Chardy in three sets.
