Juan Manuel Cerundolo vs Yunchaokete Bu prediction

Yunchaokete Bu will hope lightning strikes twice against Juan Manuel Cerundolo.

The Chinese hopeful defeated the Argentine in three sets when they met for the first time in Shanghai last year and will fancy the repeat in Beijing.

Wildcard Bu, has had a tough 2026 but did show what he is capable of on his day by taking down Rafael Jodar at the US Open.

Cerundolo is having the best season of his career but is known to prefer clay and has not been firing of late with three defeats in four.

Bu sits way below the South American in the standings but it’s perhaps a red herring in this one and it’s worth the risk on the home underdog here.
