Third round in Barcelona, today we have a match between Italian Starace and Argentinian Chela.

Starace started Barcelona in first round, he has beaten Querrey, and his countrymen in second round Bolleli. Chela started in second round and and he did a routine job beating Vincent Spadea. Both players are good on clay, Starace is 8-5 on clay this season in major events, while Chela is 11-3. Chela won some respectable players on clay this season, like Monaco, Calleri, Martin, and he lost against Nadal in Monte Carlo, CAnas and Almagro, which are all big names on clay.

Starace not in bad form, reached the final in Valencia, where he was betaen by Almagro, but he hasn't won any respectable player on clay, which compete in major events.

Chela is in my opinion on higher level than Starace, nad he must find his form, because in the next round he is probably facing Nadal.

Pick : Juan Ignacio Chela to win 2-0
Odds : 2.00
Stake : 7 / 10
