Frances Tiafoe and Pablo Carreno-Busta will clash in the second round of the French Open on Wednesday. This will be a second meeting between these players, and the winner progresses to meet Jenson Brooksby or Sebastian Korda. We have a prediction of the match below.

In less than two hours and 30 minutes, Tiafoe defeated Roman Safiullin in straight sets in the first round. That round was never a threat; it is the second round that has proven problematic for the American.

He has suffered seven defeats in this round, including at the Australian Open. At the French Open, though, he’d be glad to have passed the first round, as he had fallen there six times before. 

Carreno-Busta lost the only meeting with Tiafoe to date and will be looking to level their head-to-head numbers. He will seek to build on the impressive first-round 3-0 win over Francisco Comesana.

That victory broke a two-match losing run, but the Spaniard is still on a losing record on clay. He has so far compiled a 7-8 record on the surface. He will also be glad to have flown past the first round.

This season, he has suffered more defeats (6) in the first round than at any other level. Carreno-Busta is a former quarter-finalist here. He lost twice in the second round at the French Open.
