Mattia Bellucci vs Gabriel Diallo prediction
Mattia Belucci will quietly fancy his chances when he takes on Gabriel Diallo for the first time at the top tier.
The Italian sits at 94 in the world and will be a clear underdog with the Canadian sitting just inside the top 40.
However, the pair have locked horns on four previous occasions in qualifiers and lower level events and Bellucci leads 3-1.
Diallo finally came out on top in Acapulco qualifying last year but he is a man lacking form having won just once in his last seven outings.
Mattia isn’t exactly flying on tour this year, but he did reach the last eight in Acapulco last week and given the psychology of previous encounters, he’s worth the punt on the upset here.
