Daniel Altmaier vs Gilles Arnaud Bailly prediction
Daniel Altmaier competed in two tournaments during the Asian swing, with the German losing in the second-round on both occasions. He picked up a fine win in the first-round of the China Open, defeating Denis Shapovalov, but then came unstuck against Aleksandar Vukic. In Beijing, he beat Tristan Schoolkate but was then defeated by world number two Jannik Sinner in straight sets. Altmaier’s best result of the season was his run to the round-of-16 at Roland Garros. However, his indoors record in the early part of the year was also impressive, as he reached the last eight in both Rotterdam and Marseille.
Gilles Arnaud Bailly is his opponent in round one. The world number 247 managed to qualify for the event and will be competing in his first ATP Tour match of the season. He has won four ITF titles this season, but this will be a massive step up.
They faced each other at this very stage of the tournament last season, with Altmaier winning 6-4 6-3. A similar result is the most likely outcome here.
