Baez\u2019s baseline game and higher ranking should give him the edge, though Carabelli\u2019s clay-court skills could make it competitive. Expect Baez to prevail in three closely contested sets.<\/p>\n<p>Prediction: Baez in 3<\/p>\n<h4>Roman Andres Burruchaga vs Juan Manuel Cerundolo<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Head-to-Head:<\/strong> Burruchaga 1:0 Manuel Cerundolo<\/p>\n<p>Roman Andres Burruchaga, in strong form and holds a slight edge in the head-to-head with a win over Juan Manuel Cerundolo. Cerundolo, though skilled on clay, has been inconsistent. Expect Burruchaga to capitalize on his momentum and secure a tight victory.<\/p>\n<p>Prediction: Burruchaga in 2<\/p>\n<h4>Damir Dzumhur vs Pedro Martinez<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Head-to-Head:<\/strong> First Meeting<\/p>\n<div class=\"getty embed image\" style=\"background-color: #fff; display: inline-block; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #a7a7a7; font-size: 11px; width: 100%; max-width: 594px;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; text-align: left;\"><a style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/2175353707\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 0; padding: 66.66667% 0 0 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display: inline-block; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0;\" src=\"\/\/embed.gettyimages.com\/embed\/2175353707?et=kk9wxZlkRbl_Sd5KeyKrzA&amp;tld=com&amp;sig=XxaNiJtzEjO2yAiq9a9EtZLQO_Jh8N172ULIwDl1MLo=&amp;caption=true&amp;ver=1\" width=\"594\" height=\"396\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Pedro Martinez, ranked 41st and strong on clay, is the clear favorite against Damir Dzumhur, who has struggled on the surface. Martinez\u2019s superior form and clay-court skills should secure him a straight-sets victory. Expect a dominant performance from Martinez.<\/p>\n<p>Prediction: Martinez in 2<\/p>\n<h4>Luciano Darderi vs Francisco Cerundolo<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Head-to-Head:<\/strong> Darderi 1:0 Cerundolo<\/p>\n<p>Francisco Cerundolo, a former finalist at this event comes in as the favorite against Luciano Darderi, who has struggled recently but won their only previous meeting on the clay courts in Houston. Darderi has been inconsistent of late but he still plays his best on the red dirt. Cerundolo\u2019s experience and home advantage should secure him a hard-fought victory. Expect a competitive match with Cerundolo prevailing.<\/p>\n<p>Prediction: Cerundolo in 3<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo Credit: David Kirouac-<em>USA TODAY Sports<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The South American Golden Swing is well and truly underway as we have eight main draw singles matches on offer at the IEB+ Argentina Open, ATP Buenos Aires, on red clay.
