Tomas Martin Etcheverry vs Frances Tiafoe – Match Predictions
Etcheverry has played very few matches on this level of tournaments, especially in Europe, and will have a unique opportunity to go against some of the best players in the game today. Tiafoe made it to the Round of 16 at the Mutua Madrid Open in 2019 and is hoping to go even deeper this time around.
Tiafoe to win
Tiafoe is playing really well on clay this season being 4-1 despite the fact that it not his favorite surface. On the other hand, Etcheverry has played the majority of his matches on clay but that will not make a difference in this match. The Argentinian is on the rise but still not ready to beat Tiafoe. The American moves way faster and will have the advantage with his strong serve.

The first match between these two players had two tie-breaks and a tough battle can be expected in Madrid as well. The stakes are high for both players and they are in really good shape. That will bring us a long match which will go over 22.5 games in total.
