Mattia Bellucci vs Zsombor Piros prediction

Zsombor Piros has only once reached the main draw of the US Open singles tournament, that being last year and he was swiftly knocked out. Prior to that the Hungarian had never made it past the qualification stage. He’ll be hoping for better this year and has avoided a big-hitter in the opening round, drawing Italian Mattia Bellucci.

The 23-year-old Bellucci has made it to the second round at Queens in each of the last two years, so he has crucial pedigree at this stage. The occasion won’t phase him and he’ll be well prepared for what’s ahead. That experience may just give him a slight edge and backing Bellucci warrants serious consideration.
