Martin Landaluce vs Jack Draper Prediction & Picks - ATP Cincinnati Open

On Thursday, in Cincinnati, Martin Landaluce and Jack Draper will lock horns. Naturally, as the bigger name, Jack Draper, who is a far better player than his current ranking, is the favorite here, but we shouldn't ignore the fact that the Englishman has struggled to get going of late. 2026 in general has not been a vintage year for Draper, who has slipped out of the top 100, largely due to injury absences.

Draper recently returned to action at Eastbourne, where he won three grass-court matches, though he needed a lengthy break after that tournament, returning to the North American hard-court swing in Montreal, where he found it tough to get going against Terence Atmane. Against an up-and-comer such as Martin Landaluce, the former world number four may not have the easiest time of it, so much so that at odds of -110, it's worth betting on the Spaniard to compete by winning at least one set.
