One of Thursday's interesting matches takes place at the ATP event in Munich, where Botic Van De Zandschulp and Francisco Cerundolo lock horns. This is an interesting match primarily because the Argentine, who is the higher-ranked player, is a very strong favorite, but it's not too hard to make a case for the Dutchman competing more than the early odds would suggest he should.
Cerundolo knows how to deliver the good on clay, but he's only had three matches at the start of the 2026 clay-court season, and he's lost one of them, so he's probably not quite at his best. In contrast, Van De Zandschulp has played five recent clay-court matches and may be closer to his best, while he's twice reached the final in Munich, so don't be too shocked if he makes more headway in this match than the early odds signal.
