Jack Draper vs Matteo Berrettini prediction
Clay is the one surface where Jack Draper has yet to make his mark, as the British player has a mere 45 percent win rate on the surface. He is yet to reach a final on a clay-court or make any meaningful run at any of the clay-court events.
Berrettini has reached nine clay-court finals in his career, winning six titles. The Italian won three clay-court titles last year, the last of which came at the Austrian Open, where he won 7-5, 6-3 against Hugo Gaston in the final. He is a former runner-up in Madrid, losing 7-6, 4-6, 3-6 against Alexander Zverev in 2021.
The Italian's prowess on the surface makes him the favorite to win the match against his British opponent.
Pick- Berrettini to win in three sets.
