🔍 Match Breakdown

Marozsán brings proven Slam consistency and should feel at home on this stage. Blanchet arrives hot from qualifying, armed with confidence and plenty of reps — dangerous if the match turns scrappy.

Expect measured, medium-length rallies and tight pockets, but over best-of-five Marozsán’s experience navigating tricky openers is a real separator.

🔮 Prediction

Blanchet won’t go quietly — he has enough ballast to nick a set — yet the safer side remains the Hungarian’s round-one reliability.

Pick: Marozsán in 4 sets.
