A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Alejandro Davidovich Fokina goes up against Thiago Agustin Tirante in the French Open round of 64. Thiago Agustin Tirante comes in at 7 wins from the last ten. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is 5-5 across recent matches.

The rivalry is dead level: 1-1 across 2 matches. On clay specifically it reads 1-0 Tirante — worth more than the overall number this week.

The serve is where this match separates: Tirante has been winning 71.8% of first-serve points to Fokina's 66.9%, and on clay that gap compounds fast. Anything other than a Tirante win would rank among the bigger surprises of the week.
