Nadal vs Gasquet: easy win for Rafa?
On June 3, Rafael Nadal will go against Richard Gasquet in the second round of Roland Garros. We have prepared a prediction for this match, which you can find below.
Command Analysis
Rafael Nadal
SpainNadal began his quest for the new Roland Garros title with a confident victory over the Australian Alexei Popyrin (6-3, 6-2, 7-6). This is not to say that Rafa had an ideal performance.
The Spanish player had certain difficulties in the third set, but he still managed to finish it in his favor, even though he had to play a tie-break. Definitely, Nadal has room for improvement - we expect to see the best game from the King of the Clay in the matches to come.
Richard Gasquet
FranceJust before the start of Roland Garros, Gasquet gave a good performance at the tournaments in Lyon and Parma, where he reached the quarterfinals. At the French Open, Richard started with a confident victory over his compatriot Hugo Gaston (6-1, 6-4, 6-2).
We believe that if it were not for the matchup with Nadal in the second round, Richard could have gone on for a couple more rounds - the Frenchman is now in really good shape.
