Tomas Martin Etcheverry vs Vilius Gaubas prediction

Tomas Martin Etcheverry came from a set down to beat Francisco Comesana in his first-round match at the Rio Open. He was broken when serving for the first time in the match and that proved to be the difference in set one. However, he did not face a break point in any of the next two sets as he sealed a 3-6 6-3 6-4 win. He reached the semi-finals of the Argentina Open last week, losing to eventual winner and fellow countryman Francisco Cerundolo.

He now faces Vilius Gaubas. The Lithuanian held off the challenge of Luis Queiroz Miguel to win in three sets. Miguel, who was making his tour-level debut at just 16, delighted the home crowd as he broke twice to force a deciding set. Gaubas would eventually come through to win 6-3 2-6 6-3.

Etcheverry has been picking up consistent results during this clay court swing, and he should be confident of his chances against Gaubas.
