Andrey Rublev vs Pedro Martinez: Preview
Rublev comes into this match after successfully beating veteran Ivo Karlovic in three sets in the opening round. Although he might have suffered an initial stutter at Toronto, but made up for it by reaching the finals of the recently concluded Cincinnati Masters. With impressive runs on the hard court, earlier in the season at Doha, Dubai and Miami, the Russian is going to be a major threat on the faster courts of the US Open. Given his powerful game and momentum, expect the 23-year-old to make the second week in New York.
On the other hand, Martinez comes into contest after going through a five set ordeal against James Duckworth in the previous round. Although the Spaniard has spent plenty of time on the clay in 2021, he has only played six matches on the hard court, which is not going to be healthy for his cause in this competition. The 24-year-old is appearing in the second round of the US Open this year for the first time in his career.
Andrey Rublev vs Pedro Martinez: Head to Head
Andrey Rublev and Pedro Martinez will meet for the first time on the ATP tour at the 2021 US Open.
Andrey Rublev vs Pedro Martinez: Prediction
While the Russian will rely on his savage power and accuracy, the Spaniard is seen more of a defensive player on the circuit. Furthermore, Martinez has been through a five-set test in the opening round, which is likely to impact his movement in the match against Rublev. Don’t see anything more than a straight set win for the World No.7 in this clash.
Match Prediction: Andrey Rublev should win in three sets.
