Muller - Baez

Muller, who has been gathering himself from the first round against Fonseca, is such a funny guy - either he falls in the first round or wins the tournament. This year he won the Hong Kong ATP, then dropped out in the first round of 3 other tournaments, and now he's back in the final again where his opponent is beatable. One could even argue that in the period leading up to the final he defeated at least 3 stronger players, like Baez, and Argentina period was incredibly easy for an ATP 500 tournament. The Frenchman is good at slicing winners, he defends well, and his serve works well on clay. Baez can only boast about his defense, he's a little guy who won't be able to collect cheap points with his first serve, and he doesn't hit many winners, he just runs around. I think Muller has a comfortable matchup and even though he's not in his best form right now, he should have a lot of self-confidence.
