The fight between Roberto Carballes Baena and Matteo Berrettini takes place on October 12, 2022.
It will be held on an indoor hard court at the Palazzo Wanny in Florence, Italy.
Prediction and odds
Matteo Berrettini, world number 16, is the second seed at this week’s inaugural Firenze Open and has a bye to the round of 16.
As the highest-ranked Italian in the draw, the 26-year-old will be backed to the hilt by passionate home supporters, and he appears set for a good beginning here against Roberto Carballes Baena, whom he conceded only three games to in their only previous meeting back in 2019.
Carballes Baena, world number 80, did just that to Daniel Elahi Galan on Monday, putting out the in-form Colombian in stunning fashion, but the crowd will likely help Berrettini avoid any early worries here. Berrettini should win in straight sets.
Winner –
Roberto Carballes Baena: 6.60
Matteo Berrettini: 1.11
