Sebastian Baez is back at the Geneva Open and will begin his tournament in the first round against fellow unseeded player Alex Michelsen. This is their first career meeting and our prediction goes against Michelsen, who is coming off three straight losses.
Baez will be looking to find some form this week to help set up for the French Open that is just around the corner. The Argentine has been blowing hot and cold this season and has also lacked fluidity on his favoured clay surface.
A winner of 18 matches so far this season, Baez has compiled a nervy 8-9 record on clay. He has, however, earned semi-final appearances in Buenos Aires and Santiago.
A quarter-finalist in Geneva the last time he competed, Baez returns sitting 62nd in the live ranking.
Alex Michelsen sits 41st in the live ranking and has improved by one spot despite his recent poor form. The American has managed just two wins in his last eight outings and is on a three-match losing run.
Michelsen, who is competing in Geneva for a third successive season, is coming off an opening-round loss in Rome. The 21-year-old, who has so far compiled a 14-12 record, has won just two of five outings on clay.
Michelsen isn’t a clay court specialist and has a losing record on such surfaces in his career.

Our Sebastian Baez vs Alex Michelsen Prediction
Sebastian Baez has lacked consistency this season and is also having trouble competing on his favored clay surface. He remains the favorite here, though, as despite his slow form, he is having a better run than his opponent.
Michelsen has lost three straight fixtures, all on clay, a surface on which he has lost five of seven duels. The American isn’t a strong clay performer and has lost more matches than he has won in his career on such surfaces. Our prediction for Sebastian Baez v Alex Michelsen is the exact score: 2-0.
