Already backed Cuevas. One of my favourite players, what a fighter!

I can't believe cuevas is a dog here. It will take a bit Befor Almagro is his old self. He's getting there, but this should be evens at worst for cuevas

Cuevas wass at evens on most books. Only small line movement towards Almagro but the odds are still pretty much at evens for Cuevas.

This is one of Almagro's most successful venues winning 3 titles. This clay court plays a little faster making it a perfect surface for his game.
Cuevas is a beast on clay, but he should of lost to Vesely in the 1st round. He's never has much success here, losing to power clay courters like Zeballos last year, Starace a few years ago and should of lost to Vesely in round 1. Almagro is a better version of all 3 of them, even at less than 100%.
Should be a good match I think.

This is not the same court that Almagro won his titles on nor the same that both have had most of their past experience in Sao Paulo on. Up until last year, this was an outdoor tournament.
Both lost their 1st matches on the indoor courts last year, but have found it suited to them. Look at Cuevas' ace count. Both he and Almagro seem to be pretty well suited to using their serve on this court. Agree with you that it should be a good match. I like the over.
