Daniel Altmaier vs Luciano Darderi prediction
Daniel Altmaier defeated Hugo Gaston in straight sets to advance from the first-round at the Swedish Open. The German was in total control as he took the first set and opened up a 5-2 lead in the second. Altmaier was then broken when serving for the match, but he subsequently broke Gaston once more in the 12th game of that set to complete a 6-2 7-5 victory after one hour and 30 minutes. He conceded just the one break point across the entire match.
He now faces defending champion Luciano Darderi in the round-of-16. Darderi, who defeated Juan Manuel Cerundolo in last year’s final, received a bye in round one. The Italian lost to Ethan Quinn in his first-round match at Wimbledon, and his form has been largely disappointing since his fine run to the quarter-finals of the Italian Open. That stands as his best ever result at a Masters 1000 event.
Altmaier is a tough opponent on clay, and Darderi is likely to be challenged in this one.
