Match previews and selections
Stan Wawrinka vs. Sebastian Baez
Baez enters with a 7-6 record since the Golden Swing. He has struggled on clay against Jaime Faria and Titouan Droguet.
Wawrinka is 41 and brings power and experience. Play: Wawrinka +1.5 sets (‑134, 1.5 units) and Wawrinka moneyline (+200, 0.5 units).
Daniel Altmaier vs. Tomas Machac
Altmaier thrives on slow clay using heavy topspin and a one-handed backhand. Machac is 8-7 to start the season and can be inconsistent in extended, physical matches.
Play: Altmaier moneyline (+131).
Matteo Arnaldi vs. Cristian Garin
Arnaldi failed to beat Alexandre Muller in qualifying and has not won a main-draw match in 2026. Garin impressed in qualifying with a straight-sets win over Nikoloz Basilashvili.
Garin owns 91 ATP-level clay-court victories. Play: Garin moneyline (‑159).
Alexander Blockx vs. Denis Shapovalov
Shapovalov shows flashes but suffers from inconsistency. Wind and rough conditions can lead to control problems and extra double-faults.
Blockx has steady ball-striking and a favorable draw. Play: Blockx moneyline (+100).
Francisco Comesana vs. Flavio Cobolli
Cobolli is 9-8 for the season and will play his first clay match of 2026. His serving accuracy and return form have been uneven.
