Juan Manuel Cerundolo vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina prediction

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina takes on Juan Manuel Cerundolo for a third time when they lock horns in Chengdu.

The Spaniard leads 2-0 in the head-to-head and has yet to drop a set against the Argentine, triumphing at the US Open in 2023 and Wimbledon earlier this year.

The Argentine set up the third chapter in their rivalry with a 6-4 6-3 success over China’s Yi Zhou, but there’s no doubt Foki represents a big step up in terms of a challenge.

The conditions will very much suit the Spanish second seed, and although Cerundolo is enjoying the best season of his career, he will be vulnerable in this match-up again on this surface.
