Verdasco and Berdych in Madrid action

Fernando Verdasco and Tomas Berdych will take the court in Madrid on Tuesday as round one wraps up and round two begins. 

Tomas Berdych (6) vs. Kevin Anderson

This match between No. 6 seed Tomas Berdych and Kevin Anderson should be a hard-hitting affair. The altitude and the quicker courts make the Madrid Masters friendly for big hitters.

This would ordinarily be good news for Anderson, but Berdych hits just as big off the baseline and with better accuracy than Anderson does.

Berdych played well in Monte Carlo, making the semifinals before going out to Novak Djokovic in three sets. Anderson’s clay-court credentials in 2012 aren’t quite as impressive as Berdych’s. The South African made the round of 16 in Barcelona and the quarters in Houston.

Prediction – Berdych in straight sets.

Fernando Verdasco (15) vs. Denis Istomin

Spain’s Fernando Verdasco has had an up and down clay season, not unusual for the Spaniard. He lost in the round of 16 in Monte Carlo but made the semifinals in Barcelona.

Russian Denis Istomin’s clay season has been shaky so far. His best result was a second-round showing last week in Estoril, where he beat Paul-Henri Mathieu before going out to Joao Souza.

Verdasco will have the full support of the Spanish crowd and has show better form recently. The Spaniard for the win in straight sets.
