Prediction for the ATP Madrid match, which will take place on May 1st. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Taylor Fritz

Fritz is making his third clay tournament in Europe. In Monte Carlo, he reached the semifinals but lost to Andrey Rublev in three sets. In Munich, he played in the semifinals and fell to van de Zandschulp. In Madrid, the American skipped the first round. In the second one, he struggled against O'Connell, No. 81. That match lasted an hour and 54 minutes, and Taylor won the first set on a tie-break, the second with a score of 6-4. Taylor served eight times and made one double fault, winning 83% of his first-serve points and 72% of his second. Reception stats: 19%/53%, winners/unforced errors 22/22.

Cristian Garin

Garin reached the quarterfinals in Munich and lost in two sets to Holger Rune. In Madrid, he knocked out the Swiss Huesler and Kecmanovic. The match lasted two hours and 45 minutes; the score was 7-6, 6-7, 6-4 in favor of Garin. Cristian made four aces and three double faults and won 73% of points on the first serve and 60% on the second. Reception stats: 28%/38%, winners/unforced errors 36/30.

Expert Betting Tips

Like a year ago in Houston, Taylor Fritz is the clear favorite. But we won't be surprised if he wins the match like a year ago, playing well on clay. Fritz is playing better on this surface, but it's not the most comfortable for him. We believe that Garin is underestimated. He knocked out Kecmanovic, a way better clay courter, in the last round. Christian might surprise us again and defeat No.10 of the ATP.
