Atmane vs Bellucci Prediction 22 October 2026
🔊 Mattia Bellucci caused an upset in Almaty by beating world No. 29 Tomas Martin Etcheverry and will now face Terence Atmane. The Italian goes into the match with a clear edge in current form, riding a six-match winning streak, while the Frenchman lost two matches in a row before the tournament. That said, Atmane should not be written off entirely, as he leads their head-to-head record against Bellucci.
Head-to-Head
📊 In their only previous meeting, Terence Atmane won. The match took place last year in Australian Open qualifying and ended 7-6, 6-4.

Mattia Bellucci Player Overview
Mattia Bellucci has hit excellent form - he is on a flawless six-match winning streak and has won eight of his last ten matches. Before arriving in Almaty, he claimed the title at the hard-court Challenger in Jinan, and on the Kazakh courts he beat world No. 29 Tomas Martin Etcheverry 7-6, 2-6, 6-4. Bellucci wins 57% of all games and holds serve in 78% of service games. His set-winning rate stands at 72%, which is considerably higher than his upcoming opponent's. Also worth noting is his consistency in opening sets and the fact that he has not lost a match 0-2 in sets across his last ten matches.
Match Results: Mattia Bellucci
Key factors
- Mattia Bellucci has won 8 of his last 10 matches.
- The Italian is on a six-match winning streak, while the Frenchman lost twice in a row going into this tournament.
- Bellucci has a higher percentage of games and sets won than Terence Atmane.
Expected scenario
Mattia Bellucci takes to the court as the favourite, backed by strong recent form and control over the course of his recent matches. The Italian is expected to hold an edge across most of the key phases of the match. That said, the contest could be a tough one, given the serving statistics of both players and the French underdog's win in their previous meeting in Australia last year. A third set is possible, and momentum may shift more than once over the course of the match.
Match Result Prediction
Mattia Bellucci has won six matches in a row. That six-match winning streak reflects a strong run of form on hard courts, and stands in sharp contrast to Terence Atmane's results heading into the tournament.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Mattia Bellucci is in significantly better form: he is on a six-match winning streak and his overall numbers are stronger than Terence Atmane's. The Frenchman can compete mainly on serve, so the match is likely to be tight with plenty of holds. That said, the Italian regularly takes the initiative from the early stages, and his overall consistency makes it reasonable to expect him to control the match throughout. In that context, a bet on Bellucci to Win looks justified.
