Sebastian Baez vs Roman Andres Burruchaga prediction
Sebastian Baez’s form has taken a hit over this European clay court swing. His season began incredibly strongly, as he won all of his matches at the United Cup and reached the final of the Auckland Open. His Golden Swing resulted in two semi-final appearances in Buenos Aires and Santiago, but the Argentine has failed to win consecutive matches since his third-round appearance at Indian Wells in March. Baez lost in the second-round of Monte-Carlo, Madrid and Rome, while his last event in Geneva saw him lose in round one to Alex Michelsen in straight sets.
He faces fellow countryman Roman Andres Burruchaga in the opening round of Roland Garros. Burruchaga’s results have also dried up at the worst possible moment. He broke new ground in Houston as he advanced to his first tour-level final, losing to Tommy Paul in agonising fashion. Burruchaga then made the semi-finals of a Challenger event in Cagliari, but he has now lost four of his last five matches overall.
Both of these Argentinians are looking for an upturn, and this should be a tightly contested encounter.
