Shimabukuro is in good form and demonstrated his abilities in the qualification final. He is a specialist hard court player, unlike Carballes Baena who doesn't show strong play on open hard courts and has a negative career balance on closed hard courts. It's important to note that Shimabukuro is at the peak of his abilities. Although the match won't be easy, the Japanese player has every chance of defeating the Spaniard. We predict a victory for Shimabukuro.
