Roman Andres Burruchaga and Daniel Merida, both unseeded, play each other in the semi-finals of the Croatia Open. This is their second career meeting. With each one of them hitting at least 20 wins on clay this season, a tough battle is expected, and our prediction is for over 2.5 sets.
Burruchaga is through to his second semi-final of the season on tour. The Argentinian was a finalist in Houston back in April, marking his maiden tour final appearance.
He did not win and will be keen for a much better outcome in his Umag debut. In three sets, Burruchaga eliminated compatriot Camilo Ugo Carabelli in the last round.
The 24-year-old has won 25 matches so far this term and had not lost a set this week before the quarter-final clash with Carabelli. Burruchaga is up 10 places to 57th in the live ranking.
Daniel Merida defeated Burruchaga when they were last paired up against one another. That was last season on a clay court at the Modena Challenger.
Also looking to win his maiden tour title, the Spaniard should be boosted by this head-to-head advantage. Merida finished as runner-up at the Tiriac Open, as he made his first-ever final appearance on tour back in April.
The 21-year-old is having a strong week as he has made it to the last four without dropping a set. To qualify for the semis, Merida, who is up to 73rd in the live ranking, defeated Frenchman Titouan Droguet.
