Matteo Berrettini vs Federico Coria: Prediction
Matteo Berrettini will start as the overwhelming favorite to win this match, both on paper and on current form. The Italian will once again rely on his ‘hammer’ forehand which has done wonders this season. Coria will hope for Berrettini to make unforced errors and if he does, the Argentine will have to step up his baseline game to cause any troubles. Expect the Italian to make it to the next round easily.
Prediction: Berrettini to win in straight sets.
