ATP Bucharest Day 2 Predictions

Carlos Taberner vs Pedro Martinez

Head-to-head: Martinez 11-2

Now that’s a huge head-to-head record between the two Spaniards and it’s also extremely lop-sided. Since 2014 Pedro Martinez has only lost to Carlos Taberner twice across 13 meetings and the latter of these wins came in 2017. Other than the quality gap that exists between the two players, one is just a grinder while the other has so much more to offer in terms of aggressive ball-striking. Martinez is in very strong form too and Taberner turning around this head-to-head likely isn’t going to start on Tuesday.
Prediction: Martinez in 3
