Alexei Popyrin vs Martin Damm Jr prediction
Alexei Popyrin will go in search of a rare win in 2026 in his Madrid opener.
The Aussie has been devoid of form for much of the season so far but did pick up two victories on his way to the quarter finals in Houston recently.
The world number 56 meets Martin Damm Jr, who battled through qualifying but has also found results tough to come by, with the majority of his four wins coming in a push to the semi finals on the hardcourts of Montpellier.
The surface may be what thwarts the 22-year-old world number 126’s hopes here in a contest that will be very much on Popyrin’s racket. Whether the Aussie brings the level required has been another matter so far this season and it remains to be seen in this one.
