Mattia Bellucci vs Arthur Rinderknech prediction

Mattia Bellucci has been playing some good tennis over the last few days, coming through three rounds, including qualifying, to make it to the second round. He overcame Pablo Carreño Busta and Thiago Tirante in qualifying before beating Lorenzo Sonego on Monday, all in straight sets.

Now the Italian takes on Arthur Rinderknech. The Frenchman was embroiled in a tough tussle with Francisco Cerundolo before the Argentine was forced to retire in the deciding set.

Rinderknech is clearly loving playing on home soil, but this is going to be another tough test. Bellucci has good momentum at the moment, has been playing pretty well in recent weeks and will push Rinderknech all the way.

We can see this one having its ebbs and flows and going back and forth, potentially over three sets. We have a marginal preference for Bellucci, but it is hard to oppose Rinderknech with the partisan crowd behind him.

With a potential three-setter and at least one tie-break on the cards, the game betting is worth considering.
