Juan Manuel Cerundolo vs Matteo Berrettini prediction
Juan Manuel Cerundolo continued his campaign at the French Open as he outlasted Martin Landaluce in a near six hour epic to reach the round-of-16 at a Grand Slam for the first time in his career. The Argentine produced one of the biggest shocks of recent times as he beat Jannik Sinner in the second-round, and Cerundolo prevailed in another five setter here as he won 6-4 6-7 (7) 7-6 (4) 6-7 (4) 7-6 (8). This is the third-longest match at Roland Garros since records began in 1996.
He now takes on Matteo Berrettini, as he also advanced after winning a deciding set tiebreak. The former Wimbledon finalist beat Francisco Comesana to reach the round-of-16 at the French Open, winning 7-6 (3) 5-7 6-7 (4) 6-4 7-6 (13).
Both players arrive after physically draining matches in the previous round. Cerundolo has shown he can survive these battles on clay, and Berrettini will need to shorten points with his big serve and adopt a more first-strike approach.
Juan Manuel Cerundolo vs Matteo Berrettini tip: Over 37.5 games
