Daniel Merida Aguilar vs Taro Daniel prediction
Daniel Merida Aguilar arrives in Estoril on the back of a title triumph in Umag.
The Spaniard will be brimming with confidence and will have high expectations against world number 194 Taro Daniel.
The Japanese has won just two main draw matches on the ATP Tour since 2024 and although he is proficient on the clay, he has not been hitting the levels of his current opponent in recent times.
Daniel did win a Challenger on clay in Bratislava recently but results at the top tier have been harder to come by and the Spanish world number 82 should have enough in these conditions.
