THE PREDICTION
World number 54 Tommy Paul was 4-1 up in the first set against Pedro Martinez before the Spaniard was forced to retire from the match. This gives the American an extra day’s rest and more on Roberto Bautista Agut, who beat Paul’s fellow American Taylor Fritz in confident straight-sets on Tuesday afternoon. The pair have never met before but 23-year-old Paul is not currently in the kind of form required to upset the rhythm that Bautista Agut is displaying. The world number 11 has made the semi-finals of his last two Masters tournaments and two finals already this season, whilst Paul has yet to step up into the gear we saw at times last season. If RBA beat an in-form Taylor Fritz in two, he can beat Tommy Paul in straight sets too.
