On Wednesday, there's no shortage of clay-court action taking place in the Spanish capital of Madrid, where Francisco Comesana and Pedro Martinez Portero will clash in a battle between Argentina and Spain. Ranked below his opponent, the South American comes into this tournament having made the final of Challenger tournament in Portugal last week, which should mean that he arrives in quite confident mood. Then again, he lost that final, while his recent record aggainst higher-ranked players isn't overly outstanding.
Born in Valencian city of Alzira, Pedro Martinez Portero has what can easily be described as home tournament having grown up not far at all from the Spanish capital, though the Spaniard doesn't have an amazing record here. In four previous attempts he's failed to go beyond the first round. Could this be a case of fifth-time lucky? We'll soon find out.

Our Francisco Comesana vs Pedro Martinez Prediction
I certainly wouldn't say that this is an easy match to call, not at all. However, I am a little surprised to see that the early market doesn't have Pedro Martinez Portero as more of favorite, so I do think there's some value to be had by supporting the Spaniard on home soil. After all, we've seen him recently get the better of players such as Nakashima and Sonego on clay, which tells me that he's a little more likely to win this than the early odds would have us believe.
