Tallon Griekspoor vs Pablo Carreno Busta prediction

Top seed Tallon Griekspoor enters the clay swing on the back of some strong results on hard courts. 

The 28-year-old Dutchman posted quarter-final runs in Montpellier and most recently Indian Wells with a semi-final appearance in Dubai sandwiched in-between. 

The world number 37 trails Carreno Busta in the head-to-head having lost their only previous clash in a five-set epic at the Australian Open in 2022. 

The Spaniard was the No.19 seed back then but is no longer the same proposition as a result of a two-year battle with an elbow problem that has seen him miss large periods on tour.

Carreno Busta reached round two after a routine 6-1 6-3 win over Moroccan wildcard Younes Lalami Laaroussi. The 33-year-old won 85% of his first-serve points on his way to a first tour-level clay-court triumph since 2022. 

Griekspoor will be a significant step-up in terms of quality and we expect him to transition to clay quickly and have too much firepower for the world number 110.
