ATP Tokyo – Del Potro vs Baghdatis Preview

Juan Martin Del Potro will face Marcos Baghdatis in Tokyo’s first round

This will be fifth meeting between Juan Martin Del Potro and Marcos Baghdatis, the last match was this year at Dubai in a closed match where DelPo edged Baghdatis in a third set tie break.

After disappoint performance at US Open Del Potro tries to repeat 2008 performance when he reached the final and lost to Tomas Berdych. On the other hand Baghdatis reached semi-finals last year and looks to defend that performance.



The previous matches were always very tied and this should be another fiery contest. Del Potro hasn’t played in the last month and may struggle before he gets some game rhythm. Baghdatis has good shot making skills and has proved in the past that he knows how to play against the player from Tandil. I expect a very interesting match and my prediction is for a Del Potro win in three sets.
