Command Analysis

Mattia Bellucci

Current form
Bellucci has not played well in the last four tournaments. He left the Monte Carlo Masters and Barcelona competitions after qualifying, and in Madrid and at the Aix-en-Provence tournament, he sheathed his racket after the first round. The Italian has three wins and five losses on clay this season.
Professional qualities
Bellucci is a left-hander and he takes full advantage of this against right-handers, who do not have the most stable backhand. Although his height of 178 cm does not contribute to an abundance of aces, he successfully compensates for this with stable play on the back line and excellent movement around the court. Thanks to his good sense of rhythm, the Italian is able to impose his style of play on his opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Bellucci is currently ranked 68th in the world rankings. The 23-year-old Italian has won nine trophies in his career. He issued the last of them on an open hard drive in Cassis in 2023.
Interesting facts for betting
Bellucci has lost his last four matches.

Pedro Martinez

Current form
Martinez competed in Estoril last week. In the framework of that tournament, Pedro failed to overcome the starting circle, losing in two sets to Alexei Vatutin. The Spaniard has five wins and eight losses on clay this season.
Professional qualities
Martinez takes his toll due to his outstanding endurance and ability to cling to every ball. He feels the rhythm of the game well and is able to withstand prolonged draws. However, a weak serve and insufficient power in attacking shots prevent him from playing on fast courts. In such conditions, it is difficult for him to impose a fight on stronger opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Last season, Martinez won the competitions in Girona and Valencia, which were held on clay. In total, the 28-year-old Spaniard has won 16 trophies in his career, including one in the ATP category. Pedro is currently ranked 49th in the world rankings.
Interesting facts for betting
Martinez has suffered seven defeats in his last ten matches.
