LiontipsFrancisco Cerundolo vs Gael Monfils. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Miami (March 28, 2022).
Command Analysis
Francisco Cerundolo has been great on clay courts in 2022. He won the Santa Cruz Challenger, as well as reached the quarterfinals of the tournament in Buenos Aires and the semifinals in Rio. At the moment, the Argentine is ranked 103rd.
Few have expected Francisco to show good results on hard, but he has ousted Tallon Griekspoor (7-5, 4-6, 6-3) in the first round of the Miami Open and then passed Reilly Opelka (6-1, 3-1), who withdrew from the match during the second set.
Gael Monfils kickstarted his Miami campaign with a confident victory over Oscar Otte (7-6, 6-1). Last week, the French player reached the fourth round of the Indian Wells Masters, and he will be looking to improve that result at the current tournament.
In total, Monfils won 11 of his 14 matches on open hard courts in 2022. He was outplayed only by Alcaraz Garfia, Matteo Berrettini, and Thiago Monteiro.
