Third seed Sebastian Baez and seventh seed Luciano Darderi will face off in the semi-final at the Chile Open. This will mark the ninth meeting between the two players, and the winner meets Yannick Hanfmann or Francisco Cerundolo in the final. Read on for our prediction of the match.
These two have already met twice in 2026. Baez will be keen on stopping Darderi’s dominance, with the Italian having won all their last three duels. The Argentine will feel capable of edging this as he prepares for his third semi-final of the season.
Last time out, he beat Alejandro Tabilo in straight sets, and he is eyeing a fourth final here. Now 53rd in the live rank, Baez is seeking a second Santiago title.
Darderi was a losing finalist in Buenos Aires and will be targeting a second final of the season. He has registered marked improvement at Santiago, having only reached the quarter-final in his earlier two appearances.
The Italian, a four-time tour champion, has dominated recent meetings with Baez, winning each of the last three. The most recent was in his run to the Buenos Aires final.
