One of Friday's more eye-catching matches at the ATP event in Rome is the one between Alejandro Tabilo and Francisco Cerundolo. This is an all South American affair, with Chile going up against Argentina. The early market tells us that the Argentine competitor should come out on top, but don't be too sure of that.
Both players are very strong on clay, but in recent weeks, it is Tabilo who has been performing at the better level. The man currently ranked at 35 in the world has now won five clay-court matches on the spin, while he seemed to enjoy the conditions in Rome when winning in straight sets during then first round. Cerundolo hasn't yet played a match in Rome, so he may be at a disadvantage preparation wise. Combine this with the fact that he looked a little out of sorts when losing to a lower-ranked player last time out and a bet on Tabilo to come out on top starts to appeal.

Our Alejandro Tabilo vs Francisco Cerundolo Prediction
You could be forgiven thinking that Francisco Cerundolo is the player to beat here, but let's be honest, there's not much between the pair in the rankings, and if we consider that Alejandro Tabilo is the one with a match in Rome under his belt already, then it's not too difficult to conclude that the early market is a little out of whack.
In other words, betting on the hugely in-form Chilean, who has won five clay-court matches on the spin, to come out on top makes plenty of sense at odds of +140.
