Burruchaga vs Khachanov Prediction 9 May 2025
Barcelona semifinalist Karen Khachanov enters the fray in Rome. The Russian tennis player will face Argentine Burruchaga in the Round of 64, with Burruchaga having already played three matches in the Italian capital.
Head-to-Head
Burruchaga and Khachanov have yet to face each other.
Roman Andres Burruchaga Player Overview
The Argentine kicked off his Rome campaign from the qualifiers and made a strong impression by defeating Colombia's Galan and Spain's Carreno-Busta. While it's not that these players are significantly higher in the rankings than Burruchaga, he was not the favorite in either match. Similarly, he wasn't favored in the first round against Lorenzo Sonego. Nonetheless, he managed to secure a 2-0 victory in just an hour and a half. However, such surprises are unlikely to work against Khachanov, as the Russian is a much more formidable opponent.

Karen Khachanov Player Overview
The Barcelona semifinalist stumbled in Madrid, exiting in the second round after losing to American Tommy Paul. Following this, Khachanov decided to take a break. He had ample time to recover, preparing for ten days ahead of the Rome tournament, where the balls are similar to those in Madrid but don't travel as fast due to the Italian capital's lower altitude. However, this isn't a major concern. The powerful Khachanov has demonstrated this season that he can indeed perform on clay.
