Cristian Garin vs Sebastian Baez prediction
Cristian Garin heads into the round of 16 on the back of a come from behind defeat of Juan Manuel Cerundolo, having gone a set down to the Argentine. Garin was beaten in the first round of Thiago Agustin Tirante last week after a first round exit at the Australian Open last month.
Sebastian Baez benefitted from the withdrawal of Carlos Taberner in the first round of the Rio Open last week before succumbing to a 7-5, 6-1 loss to Jaime Faria. Baez had reached the semi-finals of the Argentina Open the week before.
Sebastian Baez is the heavy favourite for this one against Garin, though Garin may well fancy himself to prove to be a major test given the resilience he showed against Cerundolo the other day.
Cristian Garin vs Sebastian Baez tip: Cristian Garin 1-2 Sebastian Baez
