Adolfo Daniel Vallejo vs Rafael Jodar prediction

Rafael Jodar produced an eye-catching cameo at the Laver Cup to suggest he’s still firing on all cylinders in the final furlong of his breakthrough season.

The young Spaniard will have designs on concluding 2026 in the top ten and a deep run here would aid that quest. 

First up here, it’s a first clash with Adolfo Daniel Vallejo, who is also enjoying a break-out campaign.

The Paraguayan qualifier also has targets with the top 50 within reach, but he remains a greater threat on clay and this match-up should suit the big-hitting Jodar at this stage in their careers in these conditions.
