I don't know how much mandarin is undervalued nowadays. Yes, age is already advanced and it's far from what it used to be, but it still has plenty of experience. The Spaniard is, of course, a pure clay player and should dominate 2:0 according to all trends, but it wouldn't be surprising if there is a slip-up in one set where mandarin could take advantage, although it would require a low start from the Spaniard. The surface again is very difficult for the mandarin, who is not comfortable at all when the ball bounces higher than on hard or grass courts, especially with his tennis racket, which is not at all suited for this surface. But again, I don't believe that he will be completely crushed and won't be able to cover five games.

Yes, Baez has a much better handicap as a tennis player, his experience on clay is much greater and he should decide for Peru in higher level tournaments, but the French player should not be underestimated either, since he also likes clay courts, though he hasn't achieved as much success on them and is more at the challenger level. Even though the French player is not a complete clay court player and may not be able to choose the right strategy against Peru on different surfaces, he is still dangerous, being tall and having a good serve and physical condition, he can play long rallies, which is not common for taller players, so seeing how Baez struggled before, we can see that the French player could win the second set, unless Argentina suddenly improves their gameplay.
