Agut is good

The former world No. 9 is gradually returning to the forefront. No more going through the M1000 qualifiers in the future!

In the absence of Rafa and with Carlito's injury, RBA and ADF remain to represent Spain on the rock! Roberto is in a very good dynamic. His ball has weight again and above all, he has regained confidence. He is logically the favorite for me in this match against the lucky loser Diaz Acosta who is certainly playing very well, but whose victory in Buenos perhaps gave him a little too much credit in relation to his ATP ranking. His defeat against Nagal in R2 of the qualifiers is both encouraging when we see the level that Nagal can play on earth, and disappointing when we see the "body language" displayed by the Argentinian. The only big downside to take into account for me is the state of the clay with the rain forecast. The heavier it is, the more difficult Roberto will be to tell the difference in the exchange.
