Nuno Borges and Roman Andres Burruchaga: Roman Andres Burruchaga leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
Return pressure decided it. Roman Andres Burruchaga broke five times from 11 chances to Nuno Borges' two of five, seizing a 3-0 opening-set lead with breaks in games 1 and 3. Borges leveled by cashing both of his second-set break chances, but he won just 41 percent of second-serve points across the match, and Burruchaga claimed the decider's lone break in game 8 for 5-3. The fifth seed saved one match point; the ATP No. 67 took the next, 2 hours, 9 minutes in, booking an Estoril Open quarterfinal in a matchup with no prior meetings on record.
