Juan Manuel Cerundolo vs Arthur Gea prediction

Make no mistake about it, Juan Manuel Cerundolo will need to be on his game if he is to avoid an upset here when taking into account how well Arthur Gea played in the qualifiers and the tools that the 21-year-old possesses within his tennis arsenal. Fast across the court, hard to put away and capable of forcing long points which draw errors from his opponents, Gea could cause a lot of frustration from Cerundolo.

The Argentine has been playing well lately though, making the quarter-finals at Winston-Salem most recently, so he won’t be phased against a red-hot qualifier with momentum in their favour. Either way though, we should see a hard-fought match and one expected to go at least four sets if not more, regardless of the winner
