Taylor Fritz vs Marcos Giron prediction

Taylor Fritz has competed in just one clay court event over the past month. He aggravated an abdominal injury during his semi-final match in Miami and withdrew from Monte-Carlo in early April. He made his return in Madrid and won his two opening matches before a straight sets defeat to Casper Ruud in the fourth-round, with the Norwegian going on to win the tournament.

The American had an encouraging run in Rome last year, reaching the quarter-finals. He takes on Marcos Giron in the second-round. Giron produced a fine comeback win to come from a set down and defeat Madrid Open quarter-finalist Gabriel Diallo 3-6 6-3 6-4.

Fritz leads the head-to-head 4-1 and 1-0 on clay. He came from a set down to defeat Giron in Geneva on clay two years ago, while their most recent encounter was in the semi-finals of the Delray Beach Open last year, with the world number four winning in straight sets.

We think Fritz will make it through comfortably against Giron to advance to the third-round.

Taylor Fritz vs Marcos Giron tip: Taylor Fritz to win 2-0
