Who do you think will win?<\/p>\n<h2>ATP Mallorca Day 2 Predictions<\/h2>\n<h4>Stefano Travaglia vs Guido Pella<\/h4>\n<p>Pella has never particularly loved the grass, but he did seem to find a seem in 2019, reaching the Wimbledon quarterfinals. Travaglia, meanwhile, has never won a Tour-level main draw match on grass, though he has twice successfully gone through Wimbledon qualifying. Still, in both talent and grass pedigree, Pella has all the advantages.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Pella in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"_YijlDaZTLlLMhtLhuhw0Q\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1166347039\" 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:'_YijlDaZTLlLMhtLhuhw0Q',sig:'PWjr4_d8WRxMKOs-0TwDEJzAT1rOiI-ZA4S4yvEPnd0=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1166347039',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Lukas Klein vs Dusan Lajovic<\/h4>\n<p>Klein has never played a professional-level event on grass before, but he was very successful in qualifying in Mallorca. Lajovic, meanwhile, has played plenty on grass in his career&#8211;with atrocious results. The Slovakian looks solid and like he really likes the grass. I think we&#8217;ll see an impressive run here.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Klein in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Lloyd Harris vs Corentin Moutet<\/h4>\n<p>Moutet is an impressive young player, but <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2019\/06\/23\/corentin-moutet-wimbledon-qualifying\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">he likes the clay<\/a> better than the grass. He&#8217;s making progress and looks like a future second-week Major contender. Lloyd Harris, meanwhile, is somehow rising rapidly yet quietly. And the grass suits his aggressive game very well. Watch out for the South African.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Harris in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"vl_TzpzzRw5SkT0CTW2i7w\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1322871316\" 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:'vl_TzpzzRw5SkT0CTW2i7w',sig:'Kz6h2yy6V2_OsifW--c_zebt1wpJhUUsX0QDNXGmfMA=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1322871316',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Sam Querrey vs Roberto Carballes Baena<\/h4>\n<p>Roberto Carballes Baena is a decent enough player, though he has no particular affinity for grass. Querrey, meanwhile, loves the green surface. The American is a former Wimbledon semifinalist for a reason. And while he often underwhelms in smaller events, his game works way too well on grass to lose here.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Querrey in 2<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With just one week remaining until Wimbledon, players are using the ATP Mallorca Championships to refine their grass-court games.
