Martinez vs Griekspoor Prediction

We have a meeting between the unseeded Tallon Griekspoor against Spanish qualifier Pedro Martinez. Griekspoor played in the main draw of the French Open for the first time last year after four unsuccessful tries before that in qualies. This year he comes in as a top 40 player having won a maiden ATP title in Pune in January. But since the start of the European clay, the Dutchman appears to have hit the skids and there is a huge question mark on whether he is even healed from the foot injury he suffered in Madrid. He was forced to withdraw from his match against Nicolas Jarru in Rome. Pedro Martinez, for his part, will see this as a massive opportunity to continue his Roland Garros adventure after a smooth passage through the qualifying rounds, dropping just one set this week. It’s not a surprise that he enters this match as the favorite and he’s got a strong chance of knocking off the World No. 39.
