Diego Schwartzman is coming in off a routine 6-1 6-2 win over Mikhail Kukushkin in his last match. Meanwhile, Guido Pella had to work for his three-set win over qualifier Soon-woo Kwon. Pella won their most recent match in Cordoba on clay, but Schwartzman looks to be in excellent form at the moment. I can see it being close, but Schwartzman should come out on top.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Schwartzman in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"PPtrWAloR2txUS0dzVHbtg\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1157339732\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'PPtrWAloR2txUS0dzVHbtg',sig:'pA3cU7y9MPomeAJTpSKvJXcP3xPCXdlbd-F9a9YLwzk=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1157339732',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Taylor Fritz vs Radu Albot<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>H2H- First Meeting<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Earlier in the week, I thought there would be a good chance that American Taylor Fritz would withdraw from the Los Cabos Open after his run in Atlanta. He now finds himself one match away from a spot in Saturday&#8217;s final after defeating top seed Fabio Fognini in straight sets. Radu Albot&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2019\/02\/26\/radu-albot-itf-changes\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">impressive 2019<\/a> continues as well, as the Moldovan is 29-16 on the year. Albot is the type of player that doesn&#8217;t make a ton of unforced errors, but Taylor Fritz can hit him off the court if he plays how he has all week. I think Albot manages to take a set, but I think Fritz gets through and makes his second final in as many weeks.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Fritz in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo from Getty.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Disagree with our Los Cabos Open semifinal predictions?
